Summary:
The Geneseo Central School District in New York has a single elementary school, Geneseo Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The school's academic performance has been declining in recent years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 1742 out of 2445 New York elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 1687 out of 2445 in 2024-2025, earning a 2-star rating out of 5.
Geneseo Elementary School's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math on the New York State Assessments are generally below the state average, with some exceptions. For example, 3rd grade ELA proficiency is 52.54% compared to the state average of 54.15%, while 4th grade ELA proficiency is 49.02% compared to the state average of 54.07%. In Math, the school's 3rd grade proficiency is 53.33% compared to the state average of 59.7%, and 4th grade proficiency is 34.62% compared to the state average of 58.64%. The school also struggles with 5th grade Science proficiency, which is 37.93% compared to the state average of 45.02%.
Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $55,739 and a low student-teacher ratio of 9.5 to 1, Geneseo Elementary School's academic performance does not seem to be commensurate with the resources available. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at 43.58%, which may be a contributing factor to the academic challenges faced by the students.
