Best Public Schools in Alexander, NY


Summary:

The city of Alexander, New York is home to two schools: Alexander Middle School-High School and Alexander Elementary School, both part of the Alexander Central School District. While the middle/high school consistently performs well, with students outperforming the state average in several subjects, the elementary school struggles, particularly in English Language Arts.

Alexander Middle School-High School stands out for its strong academic performance, high graduation rates, and low dropout rates. In contrast, Alexander Elementary School lags behind, with significantly lower proficiency rates in English Language Arts compared to the state average, especially in grade 3. However, the elementary school performs better in math, with grade 5 students exceeding the state average proficiency rate.

The data suggests a significant disparity in academic performance between the two schools, which may be influenced by socioeconomic factors, as the elementary school has a higher percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients. Additionally, the higher spending per student at the elementary school compared to the middle/high school raises questions about the allocation of resources and how they are being utilized to support student learning. Understanding and addressing these differences could be crucial for the district's educational planning and decision-making.
