Best Public Schools in Bath, NY

Summary:

The city of Bath, New York is home to three schools serving grades K-12: Dana L Lyon Middle School, Vernon E Wightman Primary School, and Haverling Senior High School. These schools are part of the Bath Central School District, which has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Among the three schools, Haverling Senior High School stands out as the strongest performer, with a 3-star rating, a high graduation rate of 84.3%, and strong performance on Regents exams. In contrast, the elementary and middle schools in the district show relatively low proficiency rates on state assessments, particularly in English Language Arts, suggesting a need for improvement in the earlier grades.

Overall, the Bath Central School District faces challenges, with all three schools having high rates of free/reduced lunch recipients and generally underperforming compared to state averages on assessments. However, the high school's success indicates that the district may have effective strategies in place that could be leveraged to improve outcomes across all grade levels.
