Summary:
The 12125 zip code area is home to two schools - Walter B Howard Elementary School and New Lebanon Junior-Senior High School, both part of the New Lebanon Central School District. While the elementary school has consistently performed well, the high school faces some challenges, particularly with chronic absenteeism.
Walter B Howard Elementary School is a standout, consistently ranking in the top half of New York elementary schools with a 3-star rating. The school's students excel in state assessments, particularly in math, where they score significantly above the state average. In contrast, New Lebanon Junior-Senior High School also holds a 3-star rating, but faces a higher chronic absenteeism rate of 34.1%, which may impact student achievement and graduation rates.
Both schools have relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratios, indicating a focus on resources and support. However, a significant percentage of students at both schools receive free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting socioeconomic challenges that could influence academic outcomes. Overall, the data suggests that while the elementary school is performing well, the high school may benefit from targeted interventions to address chronic absenteeism and support student success.
