Best Public Schools in Alexandria Bay, NY

Summary:

The city of Alexandria Bay, New York is home to two schools: Alexandria Central Elementary School and Alexandria Central High School, both part of the Alexandria Central School District. The high school stands out as a strong performer, ranking 235 out of 1,242 New York high schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. With an impressive 84.3% four-year graduation rate and low 4.9% dropout rate, the high school's students excel on Regents exams, with many subjects seeing over 90% proficiency rates.

In contrast, the elementary school has maintained a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past three school years. While its overall performance on state assessments is mixed, the school stands out in 4th and 6th grade English Language Arts, where students outperform the state average. The elementary school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.5 may contribute to its academic success.

Both schools face socioeconomic challenges, with a significant percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, 52.4% at the high school and 47.62% at the elementary school. However, the district appears to be allocating resources effectively, as evidenced by the low student-teacher ratios at both schools. Overall, the data highlights the strengths and areas for improvement within the Alexandria Bay school system, with the high school's academic excellence and the elementary school's consistent performance being notable achievements.
