Best Public Schools in Zip Code 13634

Summary:

The 13634 zip code area is home to two schools - General Brown Junior-Senior High School and Dexter Elementary School, both part of the General Brown Central School District. While the high school has consistently demonstrated strong academic performance, the elementary school has maintained average ratings, and the funding allocation between the two institutions varies.

General Brown Junior-Senior High School stands out for its impressive academic achievements, with high proficiency rates in subjects like Chemistry, Algebra II, and English Language Arts, as well as a commendable four-year graduation rate of 84.3% and a low dropout rate of 4.9% in the 2022-2023 school year. The school's steady improvement in statewide ranking, moving from 417th in 2021-2022 to 312th in 2023-2024, further highlights its academic excellence.

In contrast, Dexter Elementary School has maintained a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating average performance. However, the school's higher per-student spending of $12,354 in 2022-2023, compared to $9,655 for the high school, suggests a focus on early childhood education and additional resources for younger students. The similar percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at both schools, around 40%, suggest that the local community may face economic challenges that could impact educational outcomes.
