The standout school in this set is Russell I Doig Middle School, which has consistently ranked in the top 40% of New York middle schools over the past 3 years and maintains a 4-star rating.

Academically, the middle school and high school in this district generally perform above the state average on New York State assessments and Regents exams. For example, in 2023-2024, Russell I Doig Middle School had significantly higher proficiency rates than the state average in math, ELA, and science for grades 5-8. Similarly, Charles O Dickerson High School outperformed the state on most Regents exams. However, the high school has a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 34.1%, which is significantly higher than the state average.

In terms of resource allocation, the middle school appears to receive the highest level of funding per student at $16,570, compared to $14,917 for the high school and $13,725 for the Trumansburg Elementary School. This may contribute to the middle school's stronger academic performance. All three schools have relatively high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 35.48% at the elementary school to 40.07% at the middle school, suggesting potential socioeconomic challenges that may impact student learning and achievement.
