This decline is reflected in the school's performance on state assessments, where the percentage of students proficient or better in ELA and Math is consistently lower than the Springville-Griffith Institute Central School District and New York state averages. Additionally, the school's 5th-grade science proficiency rate is significantly lower than the district and state averages.
