Summary

Jackson Heights School is an elementary school located in Glens Falls, New York, serving grades PK-4 with a total enrollment of 267 students. It is part of the Glens Falls City School District, which is ranked 399 out of 874 school districts in New York and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While the school has consistently underperformed compared to the district and state in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency rates for grades 3 and 4, there are some notable areas of concern. Jackson Heights School has particularly low performance for certain student subgroups, such as female students and special education students, who have consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of New York elementary schools in their respective categories. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 46.44% to 77.91% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the district and state averages.

When comparing Jackson Heights School to other nearby elementary schools within the Glens Falls City School District, there are significant performance gaps. For example, Kensington Road School, which is also in the Glens Falls district, consistently outperforms Jackson Heights School in ELA and Math proficiency rates by a wide margin. The data indicates that Jackson Heights School has room for improvement in student academic achievement, particularly in ELA and Math, and addressing the specific needs of the school's student population, including economically disadvantaged and underperforming subgroups, could be a focus for the school and district to improve overall performance.
