The school's graduation rate of 84.3% is slightly below the state average, and its dropout rate of 4.9% is higher than the state average. While the school's student-teacher ratio of 9.3 is lower than the state average, this has not translated into significantly better academic outcomes, as the school's performance on state assessments and Regents exams is generally below the state average.
Despite the district spending $20,127 per student, which is higher than the state average, the data suggests that Salamanca High School is struggling to provide a quality education for its students. With 60.71% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, the school serves a population with significant economic disadvantages, which may contribute to the school's lower academic performance.
