Summary:
The city of Champlain, New York is home to two schools: Northeastern Clinton Senior High School, an alternative school serving grades PK-12, and Northeastern Clinton Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. Both schools are part of the Northeastern Clinton Central School District.
Northeastern Clinton Senior High School stands out as the only alternative school in the data, serving 362 students. In contrast, Northeastern Clinton Middle School has a relatively low statewide ranking, placing 793 out of 1500 New York middle schools and receiving a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Both schools have a predominantly white student population, with very low representation of other racial and ethnic groups. Academically, Northeastern Clinton Middle School's proficiency rates on state assessments are generally lower than the district and state averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Science.
Despite the high per-student spending at both schools, around $15,600 per student, this does not seem to be translating into stronger academic outcomes, at least for the middle school. Additionally, both schools have relatively high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students. While the alternative high school has a lower graduation rate and higher dropout rate compared to typical high schools, this is not unexpected for this type of school.
