Best Public Schools in Zip Code 14847

Summary:

The sole school in the 14847 zip code is South Seneca Elementary School, which serves students in grades K-6. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of New York elementary schools over the past 3 years, with significantly below-average performance on state assessments in English Language Arts and Math. The South Seneca Central School District, which the school is part of, is also among the lower-performing districts in the state.

South Seneca Elementary School faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with over 52% of its students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the school's low performance, it has a relatively high spending per student of $25,052 and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 9.8 to 1. This raises questions about the efficient allocation and utilization of resources to drive improved student outcomes.

Overall, the analysis of the sole school in the 14847 zip code reveals a consistently low-performing institution that is struggling to support student learning and achievement. While the school has access to resources, it has not been able to translate these into better academic outcomes for its students. This highlights the need for a deeper understanding of the factors contributing to the school's performance and the potential for targeted interventions and support to address the underlying issues.
