Summary

PS 22 Graniteville is an elementary school in Staten Island, New York, serving 768 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #31, which is ranked 403 out of 874 districts in the state.

Academically, PS 22 Graniteville has consistently underperformed compared to the district and state averages in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 34.07% of 3rd graders, 52.42% of 4th graders, and 56.6% of 5th graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the district's 65.32%, 64.87%, and 67.53%, respectively. The school's math proficiency rates were also lower, with only 32.65% of 3rd graders, 48.82% of 4th graders, and 55.66% of 5th graders meeting or exceeding proficiency, compared to the district's 67.29%, 65.05%, and 66.12%.

The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with its African American students ranking 419 out of 928 New York elementary schools in ELA, while its White students ranked 795 out of 1,392. The school also has a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 85.03% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year. Interestingly, nearby schools in the same district, such as PS 44 Thomas C Brown and PS 21 Margaret Emery-Elm Park, also struggle academically, while some schools, like PS 30 Westerleigh and Hellenic Classical Charter School - Staten Island, perform significantly better, suggesting that factors beyond just district and socioeconomic status may be at play.
