Elementary Schools in Deruyter Central School District

Summary:

The Deruyter Central School District in New York contains a single elementary school, Deruyter Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade.

Based on the available data, Deruyter Elementary School does not appear to be a standout performer. The school has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing elementary schools in New York, with a statewide ranking of 2122 out of 2445 schools for the 2024-2025 school year and a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math on the New York State Assessments are significantly lower than the state averages, with only 19.05% of 3rd-grade students proficient or better in both subjects, compared to the state averages of 54.15% in ELA and 59.7% in Math.

Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $31,145 and a low student-teacher ratio of 8.5 to 1, Deruyter Elementary School's academic performance remains poor. This suggests that simply allocating more resources may not be enough to improve student outcomes, and that other factors, such as the quality of instruction, curriculum, and school leadership, may be more important in driving academic success. Additionally, the school serves a relatively disadvantaged student population, with 39.35% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, which may be a contributing factor to the school's low performance.
