Located in Remsen, NY, the school has consistently ranked among the top high schools in New York state over the past decade, with a current statewide ranking of 117 out of 1,242 high schools.

Remsen Junior-Senior High School consistently outperforms the state and district averages on standardized tests across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school had significantly higher proficiency rates than the state in English Language Arts, Math, and Science. The school's students also consistently outperform the state and district on Regents exams, with proficiency rates well above the state average in subjects like Common Core Algebra II, Common Core English Language Arts, and U.S. History and Government. Additionally, the school has shown exceptional performance among specific student subgroups, such as male students and low socioeconomic status students, ranking 55th and 18th out of 1,211 and 1,170 New York high schools, respectively, in the 2023-2024 school year.

However, the school's relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 23% to 39.5% over the past few years, is an area of concern that the school and district may need to address.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
