Best Public Schools in Zip Code 13905

Summary:

The 13905 zip code area in Binghamton, New York is home to 6 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school, all part of the Binghamton City School District. While the district as a whole is ranked 787 out of 865 school districts in New York and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, there are some standout schools that deserve attention.

Thomas Jefferson School, an elementary school, stands out with its strong academic performance, particularly in English Language Arts and Math, where 3rd and 4th-grade students outperform the district average. In contrast, Binghamton High School struggles with low graduation rates, high dropout rates, and significant chronic absenteeism, all of which are well below state averages. The district's overall test scores also lag behind the state, with only 28.53% of students proficient or better in Algebra I, compared to the state average of 62.47%.

Despite the district's challenges, there are some bright spots, such as the Broome-Delaware-Tioga BOCES alternative school, which boasts a very low student-teacher ratio of 5.1, suggesting a high level of individualized attention for students. Additionally, the district spends more per student than the state average, but this investment does not seem to be translating into better academic outcomes, indicating a need for more effective resource allocation and targeted interventions to address the root causes of the performance gaps.
