Best Public Schools in Zip Code 14521

Summary:

The 14521 zip code in New York is home to a single public school, South Seneca Middle/High School, which serves grades 6-12. The school is part of the South Seneca Central School District, which is ranked 793 out of 865 school districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

South Seneca Middle/High School faces some significant challenges, with a graduation rate slightly below the state average and a dropout rate higher than the state average. The school's test scores on New York State Assessments and Regents exams are generally below the state averages, particularly in math proficiency. However, the school does perform well on the Regents Chemistry exam, with 100% proficiency. The school also has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively low-income student population, and spends more per student than the state average, suggesting socioeconomic factors may be impacting student achievement.

Despite these challenges, the school's small student-teacher ratio of 8.1 could be a strength to build upon. Additionally, the school's ranking has declined over the past few years, from 500 out of 1,190 high schools in 2021-2022 to 751 out of 1,242 high schools in 2023-2024, indicating a need for targeted interventions to improve academic performance and support student success.
