Best Public Schools in Hamilton, NY

Summary:

The city of Hamilton, New York is home to two schools that serve students from elementary through high school: Hamilton Junior-Senior High School and Hamilton Elementary School. These schools are part of the Hamilton Central School District and demonstrate strong academic performance, with both schools consistently outperforming the state average on state assessments.

Hamilton Junior-Senior High School stands out as a particularly strong performer, ranking 151 out of 1,228 New York high schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The high school boasts impressive metrics, including a 95.1% four-year graduation rate, a 0.0% dropout rate, and high proficiency rates in English Language Arts. In contrast, while Hamilton Elementary School also performs well, it does not demonstrate the same level of standout performance as the high school.

Both schools serve a predominantly white student population, with small percentages of African American and Hispanic students. The district appears to allocate resources fairly across grade levels, with similar per-student spending at the high school and elementary school. However, the 16.4% chronic absenteeism rate at the high school is an area that could benefit from further investigation and targeted interventions to improve student attendance and outcomes.
