Overview
Eagle Point Elementary School is a public elementary school in Albany, New York, serving students in prekindergarten through grade 5. It is part of the City School District of Albany, according to the district’s 2024-25 School Comprehensive Education Plan (SCEP) [1]. The school’s official district page lists grades served as PK-5 and gives the campus address as 1044 Western Ave., Albany, NY 12203 [2]. The New York State Education Department (NYSED) data site identifies the school as Eagle Point Elementary School, with BEDS code 010100010027 and institution ID 800000055738, and reports a total enrollment of 279 students for 2024-25 [3].
This profile summarizes verified information from the school’s official district webpage, the 2024-25 SCEP, and the NYSED report card data site. It is not a ranking or an evaluation of quality. Where the available sources do not cover a topic—such as specific curriculum programs, admissions boundaries, or current-year staffing—the profile notes that limitation rather than filling it with assumptions.
Location and School Identity
Eagle Point Elementary School is located at 1044 Western Ave., Albany, NY 12203 [2]. Albany is the capital city of New York and the seat of Albany County. The school operates within the City School District of Albany, which is also referred to in the SCEP as the district serving Eagle Point [1]. The school’s main phone number is 518-475-6825 [2][3]. Its official district webpage is https://www.albanyschools.org/schools/eaglepoint [2].
State records use the legal name Eagle Point Elementary School. The NYSED data site lists the principal as Jared Fox and provides the BEDS code 010100010027 and institution ID 800000055738 [3]. The 2024-25 SCEP also lists Jared Fox among the plan’s development team [1]. These identifiers help distinguish the Albany school from similarly named schools in other states or districts. The school’s physical address does not by itself establish attendance-zone eligibility; families should confirm assignment rules with the City School District of Albany.
Grades and Academic Programs
Eagle Point Elementary School serves prekindergarten through grade 5. The district’s official school page lists Grades served: PK-5, and the 2024-25 SCEP lists the school’s grades served as PK – 5 [1][2]. The school day begins at 8 a.m. and ends at 2:30 p.m. [2].
The retrieved sources do not describe specific academic programs, instructional models, magnet themes, dual-language offerings, or specialized curricula at Eagle Point. They do confirm that the school has a School Comprehensive Education Plan for 2024-25, a state-required school improvement planning document developed with staff and family partners [1]. New York State administers standardized assessments in English language arts and mathematics in grades 3-8, science in grades 4 and 8, and Regents exams in high school; students receive performance levels from 1 to 4, with levels 3 and 4 considered proficient [3]. Those are general state assessment rules, not a description of Eagle Point’s results. The retrieved NYSED page did not include school-level assessment results in the available excerpt, so no performance conclusions can be drawn here.
For grades 6-8, the official school page states that students who attend Eagle Point Elementary School will be enrolled in North Albany Middle School [2]. That statement describes the district’s middle school enrollment path as published on the school page; families should verify current assignment details with the district.
Enrollment and School Data
According to the NYSED data site, Eagle Point Elementary School had 279 total students in 2024-25 [3]. This is a single-year enrollment figure reported at the school level. It is not a district total, and it should not be treated as current for later school years. The same source identifies the principal as Jared Fox and provides the school’s BEDS code and institution ID [3].
The available evidence does not include student-teacher ratio, attendance rate, demographic breakdowns, English language learner counts, students with disabilities counts, or assessment proficiency rates for Eagle Point. The NYSED page excerpt describes the state assessment system generally but does not provide the school’s results [3]. Readers who need those measures should consult the full NYSED report card for the school and check the reporting year shown on each table. Missing data in this profile means the retrieved sources did not supply it, not that the value is zero.
Enrollment figures can change from year to year because of family moves, grade-level cohorts, and district assignment decisions. The 279-student figure is therefore best understood as a 2024-25 snapshot rather than a permanent characteristic of the school. For the most current enrollment and staffing information, readers should contact the school or district directly [2][3].
Admissions and Enrollment
The retrieved sources do not describe an application process, lottery, magnet admission, or specific attendance boundary for Eagle Point Elementary School. They do confirm that the school is part of the City School District of Albany and serves PK-5 [1][2]. In New York State, enrollment in a district elementary school is generally arranged through the local district, but the exact process, eligibility rules, deadlines, and required documents can change. Families should contact the City School District of Albany or visit the school’s official district page for current enrollment instructions [2].
The official school page lists the school phone number as 518-475-6825 and the district address as 1 Academy Park, Albany, NY 12207, with a district phone number of 518-475-6000 [2]. These contacts are the appropriate starting point for questions about registration, transfers, and school assignment. The page’s statement about North Albany Middle School for grades 6-8 is a published enrollment path, not a guarantee of a particular placement in every circumstance; readers should confirm with the district [2].
Student Services and Family Information
The official Eagle Point Elementary School page lists several support contacts. It identifies Ken Griffin under Student support, and lists Robin Mitchell and Leah Hoey under School nurse [2]. It also notes an Eagle Point PTA [2]. These listings indicate that the school community has a parent-teacher association and designated support and health contacts, but the retrieved page does not describe the full range of services, eligibility criteria, or schedules.
For special education questions, the page directs families to the district Special Education Office at (518) 475-6150 x14309. It also lists Sub-CSE Chairperson contacts by grade level: one for Pre-K and one for Grades K-5 at ASH, AIA, Eagle Point & Sheridan Prep [2]. This suggests that special education referrals and meetings for Eagle Point families are handled through the district’s special education structure, but the page does not provide a complete procedural guide. Families should contact the district office for current information about evaluations, IEP meetings, and related services.
The school day begins at 8 a.m. and ends at 2:30 p.m. [2]. The retrieved sources do not include before-school or after-school care, transportation eligibility, meal service, or language support details for Eagle Point. Those services are common in many districts but should not be assumed here; readers should verify availability directly with the school or district.
History and Community Context
The retrieved sources do not provide a founding date, historical milestones, or a detailed community history for Eagle Point Elementary School. The school is located in Albany, New York, the state capital and the seat of Albany County. Its district, the City School District of Albany, serves the city and operates multiple schools; the 2024-25 SCEP identifies Eagle Point as one of its schools [1]. The SCEP development team included school staff and partners, which indicates an ongoing school improvement planning process for 2024-25 [1]. No claim is made here about the school’s reputation, awards, or comparative performance, because the available evidence does not support such claims.
The 2024-25 SCEP cover page states that the plan was collaboratively developed by the Eagle Point Elementary School SCEP Development Team and in partnership with the staff, students, and families of Eagle Point Elementary School [1]. Named team members include Jared Fox, Alexander Santana, Elizabeth Despart, Karyn Barry, Marcella Klaes-Eichhorn, Gregory Dillon, Kevin Retell, Molly Mullen, and Susan Paultre [1]. This document is a planning record for the 2024-25 school year, not a comprehensive history of the school.
How to Verify Current Information
Because school details can change, readers should use official sources for the most current information. The City School District of Albany’s Eagle Point Elementary School page provides contact information, grades served, school hours, support contacts, and the published middle school enrollment path [2]. The New York State Education Department data site provides state-level school identifiers, the principal name, and enrollment for 2024-25, and links to the school report card [3]. The 2024-25 School Comprehensive Education Plan provides the district and grade-span information and describes the school’s improvement planning context [1].
For enrollment, assignment, special education, transportation, and program questions, contact the City School District of Albany or Eagle Point Elementary School directly using the phone numbers listed on the official page [2]. For assessment and accountability data, consult the NYSED report card and note the reporting year for each measure [3]. When sources disagree or a detail is not published, ask the district for written confirmation rather than relying on unofficial summaries.
