Summary:
The city of Lyons, New York is home to three schools serving grades K-12: Lyons Elementary School, Lyons Senior High School, and Lyons Middle School. These schools are part of the Lyons Central School District, which is ranked 762 out of 865 districts in New York and rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating the district is performing well below average statewide.
Among the three schools, Lyons Middle School stands out for its exceptional performance on Regents exams, with 100% of students proficient in Living Environment and Algebra I - significantly higher than the district and state averages. In contrast, Lyons Elementary School has lower than average proficiency rates on state assessments across English Language Arts, Math, and Science compared to the district and state, which is a potential area of concern. Lyons Senior High School has a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 84.3%, better than the district average but still below the state average.
Across the district, high rates of free and reduced lunch recipients, ranging from 58.74% to 66.13%, indicate a need to address socioeconomic challenges that may be impacting student achievement. Additionally, chronic absenteeism is high at Lyons Senior High School, with 34.1% of students chronically absent, which could be a contributing factor to the lower test scores and graduation rates. Overall, the data suggests the Lyons school district is facing significant challenges in terms of student performance and outcomes, and targeted interventions and support may be needed to improve proficiency, graduation rates, and other key metrics across the district.
