Best Public Schools in Zip Code 13617


Summary:

The 13617 zip code area is home to 4 schools, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. The standout school in this set is H.C. Williams Senior High School, which has consistently ranked among the top high schools in New York state with a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. This high school boasts an impressive 84.3% 4-year graduation rate, well above the state average, and exceptional performance on Regents exams with 90%+ proficiency rates across multiple subject areas.

While the elementary school, F.S. Banford Elementary, maintains relatively consistent proficiency rates on state assessments, the middle school, J.M. McKenney Middle School, appears to be a weaker performer in comparison to the high-achieving high school. This suggests the transition from middle to high school may be a critical point for student success in this Canton Central School District.

Another area of concern is the high chronic absenteeism rate of 34.1% at H.C. Williams Senior High School, which may be impacting overall student performance and outcomes. Additionally, the significant difference in per-student spending between the elementary/middle schools ($9,010-$9,641) and the high school ($15,534) suggests the district may be prioritizing resources and funding at the high school level, an area that could benefit from further analysis.
