Best Public Schools in Cold Spring, NY

Summary:

The city of Cold Spring, New York is home to three high-performing schools that serve students from elementary through high school: Haldane High School, Haldane Elementary School, and Haldane Middle School. These schools, which are part of the Haldane Central School District, have consistently demonstrated academic excellence, with Haldane High School and Haldane Elementary School ranking among the top schools in New York state.

Haldane High School stands out as a particularly impressive institution, with a 98.8% four-year graduation rate and students who significantly outperform the state average on New York State Assessments for English Language Arts and Math. The school has also maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, placing it in the top 20% of New York high schools. Haldane Elementary School also shines, ranking in the top 15% of New York elementary schools and boasting students who outperform the state average on assessments across all grade levels and subjects.

While the Haldane schools serve a predominantly white student population, they demonstrate a strong commitment to academic excellence and a track record of high-quality education. With relatively low student-teacher ratios and high per-student spending, these schools have been able to provide their students with the resources and support they need to thrive. However, the data also suggests that the schools may not fully reflect the racial and socioeconomic diversity of the broader Cold Spring community, raising questions about equity and access for all students in the area.
