Best Public Schools in Elba, NY

Summary:

The city of Elba, New York is home to two schools: Elba Elementary School and Elba Junior-Senior High School, both part of the Elba Central School District. While the elementary school lags behind state averages in academic performance, the high school stands out as a strong performer, with a 100% four-year graduation rate and better-than-average proficiency on Regents exams.

Elba Junior-Senior High School is the clear standout, earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger compared to 2 stars for the elementary school. The high school boasts impressive academic achievements, with students exceeding state averages in subjects like Algebra I, Algebra II, and Living Environment. In contrast, Elba Elementary School's proficiency rates on New York State Assessments are generally lower than the state average, particularly in 4th grade. This disparity in academic performance between the two schools suggests a need to address learning gaps and ensure a more consistent educational experience across grade levels.

Both schools have a predominantly white student population, with limited racial diversity, and a substantial percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. While the high school spends significantly more per student than the elementary school, both maintain relatively low student-teacher ratios. The high school's 100% graduation rate and 0% dropout rate are impressive, but its high chronic absenteeism rate of 21.7% is a concern that the district may need to address. Overall, the data provides a nuanced picture of the schools in Elba, highlighting both strengths and areas for improvement as the district works to provide quality education for all students.
