Best Public Schools in Zip Code 14527

Summary:

The 14527 zip code area is home to 3 schools that serve students from preschool through 12th grade: Penn Yan Elementary School, Penn Yan Academy, and Penn Yan Middle School. While the schools share a district, Penn Yan Central School District, their performance varies significantly.

Penn Yan Academy stands out as the top-performing school in the area, consistently ranking among the top 25% of high schools in New York state. The school boasts strong academic achievement, with over 90% of students proficient in key subjects like Algebra II, Geometry, and English Language Arts. In contrast, Penn Yan Middle School appears to be the weakest performer, with proficiency rates below the district and state averages, particularly in 8th grade.

Despite the high per-student spending and small class sizes across all 3 schools, the academic outcomes are somewhat uneven. This raises questions about how resources are being utilized and what other factors may be influencing student learning. Additionally, the high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch suggest many families in the area face economic hardship, which could be a significant factor impacting student performance and may require targeted support and interventions.
