Best Public Schools in Delanson, NY

Summary:

The city of Delanson, New York is home to two schools: Duanesburg Elementary School and Duanesburg High School, both part of the Duanesburg Central School District. While both schools perform well, Duanesburg High School stands out as the stronger of the two, consistently ranking in the top half of New York high schools and maintaining a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger in the past.

Duanesburg High School boasts strong academic performance, with high proficiency rates on Regents exams across multiple subjects, including 92% proficiency in Algebra II, 84% in English Language Arts, and over 80% in U.S. History, Living Environment, and Physics. The school also has a relatively low dropout rate of 4.9% and a solid 84.3% four-year graduation rate. In comparison, Duanesburg Elementary School is a solid performer but does not stand out as strongly as the high school, maintaining a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and having test scores that are generally above the state average, but not exceptionally high.

Both schools have relatively low free/reduced lunch rates, suggesting they may serve a more affluent student population. However, Duanesburg High School spends significantly more per student ($15,996) compared to the elementary school ($11,473), which could be due to factors like higher teacher salaries, more specialized coursework, or additional resources for extracurricular activities at the high school level. While Duanesburg High School remains a top performer, its statewide ranking has dropped in recent years, which could be an area for further investigation.
