Best Public Schools in Zip Code 12962

Summary:

The 12962 zip code in New York is home to a single elementary school, Morrisonville Elementary School, which serves grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 358 students. While the school benefits from relatively higher per-student spending and smaller class sizes, it has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools and underperformed on state assessments compared to district and state averages.

Morrisonville Elementary School's academic performance has been a persistent challenge, with the school ranking 2112 out of 2445 New York elementary schools in the 2023-2024 school year. The school's students have struggled to meet state standards in English Language Arts, Math, and Science, indicating a need for targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes. Additionally, the school serves a relatively high percentage of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, with 33.24% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year.

Despite the higher resource allocation, with per-student spending of $16,206 and a student-teacher ratio of 12.3, the school's performance remains below the district and state averages. This suggests that additional resources alone may not be sufficient to address the underlying issues and that a more comprehensive approach, including an analysis of instructional practices, curriculum, and support systems, may be necessary to enhance student learning and achievement at Morrisonville Elementary School. Collaboration with the Saranac Central School District and community stakeholders could be crucial in developing a plan to support the success of all students in this area.
