Chestnut Ridge Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Rochester, New York, serving grades PK-4 with a total enrollment of 574 students. The school is part of the Churchville-Chili Central School District, which is ranked 461 out of 874 school districts in New York and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Chestnut Ridge Elementary School's academic performance has been mixed compared to the district and state averages. While the school's 4th-grade ELA and Math proficiency rates have shown improvement in recent years, the overall performance on state assessments has been inconsistent. The school's rankings for different student subgroups also vary, with some subgroups performing better than others. Additionally, the school has a relatively high student-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending compared to nearby Churchville Elementary and Fairbanks Road Elementary schools.

The inconsistent academic performance and significant achievement gaps among student subgroups at Chestnut Ridge Elementary School suggest the need for a more targeted and comprehensive approach to improving student learning outcomes. Understanding the factors that contribute to the school's resource allocation and learning environment, as well as how they compare to nearby schools, could provide valuable insights to enhance the overall educational experience for students.
