Summary

Dr Jacqueline Peek-Davis School is an elementary school located in Brooklyn, New York, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 188 students. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #17, which is ranked 565 out of 874 districts in New York and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Dr Jacqueline Peek-Davis School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools, with performance on state assessments generally below the district and state averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts (ELA) ranged from 39.13% (3rd grade) to 64.29% (5th grade), compared to the district's 61.28% (3rd grade) to 60.09% (5th grade) and the state's 54.15% (3rd grade) to 56.61% (5th grade). In mathematics, the school's proficiency rates were even lower, ranging from 27.27% (3rd grade) to 53.85% (5th grade), compared to the district's 63.68% (3rd grade) to 50.37% (5th grade) and the state's 59.7% (3rd grade) to 54.16% (5th grade). The school's performance on state science assessments for 5th grade was also below the district and state averages.

Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $40,905 in the 2023-2024 school year, compared to the district's average of $43,689 and the state's average of $36,096, and a low student-teacher ratio of 18.8 students per teacher, the school's academic performance suggests that these resources may not be effectively utilized or targeted to address the specific needs of the student population, which includes a high percentage of economically disadvantaged and homeless students. The school's inconsistent academic performance, with some grades and subject areas performing better than others, indicates that there may be opportunities to improve the effectiveness of instructional practices and teacher quality to better support the unique needs of its diverse student body.
