Best Public Schools in Hudson, NY


Summary:

The city of Hudson, New York is home to 3 schools serving students from elementary through high school, with the Montgomery C Smith Elementary School, Hudson High School, and Hudson Junior High School making up the Hudson City School District. While the high school shows some academic strengths, the elementary and middle schools in the district generally underperform compared to state averages, particularly in math and English language arts.

Hudson High School stands out for its relatively strong performance on Regents exams, with proficiency rates above the district and state averages in subjects like Chemistry, Algebra II, and English. However, the school also struggles with a concerning 11.3% dropout rate and 32.4% chronic absenteeism rate. In contrast, Hudson Junior High School excels in Algebra I with a 100% proficiency rate, but lags behind in math proficiency in other grades.

Across the district, the schools serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, with 57-65% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This may contribute to the academic challenges faced by the elementary and middle schools, which consistently underperform compared to state standards in ELA and math. While the district spends more per student than the state average and maintains relatively low student-teacher ratios, targeted interventions and support for these economically disadvantaged students could be crucial in improving overall educational outcomes in the Hudson City School District.
