Best Public Schools in Hammondsport, NY

Summary:

The city of Hammondsport, New York is home to two schools - Glenn H Curtiss Memorial School, an elementary school, and Hammondsport Junior-Senior High School. While the elementary school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past 3 years, the high school has consistently ranked in the top 25% of New York high schools, earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The high school stands out for its strong performance on Regents exams, with several subjects seeing over 90% proficiency rates. It also has a relatively low dropout rate of 4.9% and a solid 84.3% 4-year graduation rate. In contrast, the elementary school still performs well above the state average on 3rd-6th grade ELA and math assessments, but its lower student-teacher ratio of 8.8 compared to the high school's 6.9 may be a contributing factor to its recent decline in statewide ranking.

Across both schools, the Hammondsport Central School District spends more per student at the high school ($23,778) than the elementary school ($19,358), which could help explain the high school's stronger academic performance and higher ranking. However, the elementary school's higher free/reduced lunch rate of 48.33% compared to the high school's 42.01% suggests a greater proportion of students from lower-income families, which may impact academic outcomes and require additional support.
