Best Public Schools in Marcy, NY


Summary:

The city of Marcy, New York is home to two schools: Whitesboro High School and Marcy Elementary School, both part of the Whitesboro Central School District. Whitesboro High School stands out as the top performer, ranking in the top 25% of high schools in New York state with a 4-star rating. The school boasts strong academic achievement, with high proficiency rates on Regents/Common Core exams across multiple subjects. In contrast, Marcy Elementary School performs more modestly, with a 3-star rating and middle-third ranking among elementary schools statewide.

Whitesboro High School has a reasonable 84.3% four-year graduation rate and a 4.9% dropout rate, both of which could be improved. The school excels in Regents/Common Core exams, particularly in Algebra II (95.56% proficiency), English Language Arts (94.67%), and U.S. History and Government (94.17%). Marcy Elementary, on the other hand, performs well in math assessments but has more mixed results in English Language Arts, with proficiency ranging from 44.23% to 61.22% across grades 3-5.

Both schools serve a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with free/reduced lunch rates of 34.12% at Whitesboro High and 28.48% at Marcy Elementary. The higher spending per student at the elementary school ($17,474 vs. $14,526 at the high school) may reflect the district's focus on early childhood education, which could pay dividends in the long run. The lower student-teacher ratio at Marcy Elementary (10.9:1) compared to Whitesboro High (14:1) also suggests a greater allocation of resources to the younger grades.
