Best Public Schools in Zip Code 12771

Summary:

The 12771 zip code area in New York is home to 3 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Port Jervis City School District. While the schools show mixed academic performance, with some standout achievements, there are also areas for improvement across the district.

Port Jervis Senior High School stands out with a 3-star rating, a relatively high graduation rate of 84.3%, and strong performance on Regents exams, exceeding district and state averages in several subjects. In contrast, Port Jervis Middle School has a lower 1-star rating, but impresses with 100% proficiency on the Regents Living Environment and Algebra I exams, despite underperforming on state ELA and Math assessments. The Anna S Kuhl Elementary School generally has proficiency rates below the district and state averages, with some exceptions in higher grade levels.

Across the district, the schools face socioeconomic challenges, with a significant percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 55.33% at the high school to 63.31% at the elementary school. Despite the relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratios, the mixed academic performance suggests that factors beyond just funding and staffing may be at play. The district may benefit from a closer examination of the factors contributing to the disparities in performance and targeted strategies to address the unique needs of each school, ensuring equitable educational opportunities for all students.
