Best Public Schools in Zip Code 13101

Summary:

The 13101 zip code is home to two schools, McGraw Secondary School and McGraw Elementary School, both part of the McGraw Central School District. While the district as a whole is ranked above average, the individual schools demonstrate quite different academic outcomes.

McGraw Secondary School stands out as a top performer, consistently ranking in the top 25% of New York high schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school boasts strong academic achievement, with students scoring well above the state average on a variety of assessments. Additionally, McGraw Secondary School maintains a high 4-year graduation rate of 84.3% and a low dropout rate of 4.9%. In contrast, McGraw Elementary School has a lower 3-star rating and more mixed academic results, with some grades performing above the state average and others below.

Both schools have similar per-student spending levels, around $16,500, but the secondary school appears to leverage its resources more effectively, as evidenced by its higher test scores and graduation rates. Additionally, the relatively high free/reduced lunch rates at both schools, over 50%, indicate a student population facing significant economic challenges, making the secondary school's academic achievements even more impressive.
