Summary

Elba Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-6 in the Elba Central School District. With 246 students, the school is located in Elba, NY, a community in the western part of the state. While the Elba Central School District is ranked 480 out of 874 districts in New York and rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, Elba Elementary School has faced significant challenges in terms of academic performance.

Elba Elementary School has consistently underperformed compared to the state average on New York State Assessments in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in ELA ranged from 28.57% to 45.83% across grades 3-6, compared to the state average of 50.86% to 56.61%. Similarly, in Math, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 37.5% to 43.75%, compared to the state average of 51.2% to 59.7%. This underperformance is reflected in the school's ranking, which has been in the bottom half of New York elementary schools, ranging from 1291 out of 2434 schools in 2021-2022 to 1975 out of 2445 schools in 2024-2025.

When comparing Elba Elementary School to nearby schools, the academic gap becomes even more apparent. For instance, Pembroke Intermediate School, located about 13 miles away, consistently outperforms Elba Elementary School on state assessments, with proficiency rates ranging from 57.14% to 66.07% in ELA and 71.43% to 78.95% in Math for the 2024-2025 school year. While Elba Elementary School has seen a significant increase in spending per student, from $11,982 in 2020-2021 to $22,286 in 2023-2024, this additional funding has not yet translated into improved academic outcomes for the school.
