Best Public Schools in Zip Code 12846


Summary:

The 12846 zip code area is home to two schools - Stuart M Townsend Elementary School and Hadley-Luzerne Junior-Senior High School, both part of the Hadley-Luzerne Central School District. While the elementary school shows strong performance in the early grades, the high school stands out as a top-ranked institution in the state, with impressive Regents exam results and a high graduation rate.

Hadley-Luzerne Junior-Senior High School is ranked in the top 301 out of 1,242 high schools in New York state, earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's Regents exam proficiency rates exceed the state average in subjects like Chemistry, Common Core Algebra II, and Common Core Geometry, and it maintains a 4-year graduation rate of 84.3%, which is above the state average. In contrast, Stuart M Townsend Elementary School outperforms the state average in 3rd and 4th grade ELA and Math, but lags behind in the upper elementary grades, suggesting potential areas for improvement.

Both schools serve a significant population of students from low-income backgrounds, with over 50% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. The higher spending per student at Hadley-Luzerne Junior-Senior High may be an effort to provide additional resources and support for these students. Additionally, the relatively low student-teacher ratios at both schools suggest a potential for more individualized attention and support, though the high chronic absenteeism rate at the high school is a concern that may need to be addressed.
