Best Public Schools in Madrid, NY

Summary:

The city of Madrid, New York is home to two schools: Madrid-Waddington Junior-Senior High School and Madrid-Waddington Elementary School, both part of the Madrid-Waddington Central School District. While the high school is a standout performer, ranking in the top 20% of New York high schools, the elementary school is struggling, ranking in the bottom 40% of the state.

The high school has consistently earned a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and boasts a graduation rate of 84.3%, above the state average. Its students excel on Regents exams, particularly in Common Core Algebra II, Common Core English Language Arts, and U.S. History and Government. However, the school's performance on state ELA and math assessments in grades 6-8 is below the state average, with proficiency rates ranging from 25-44% in ELA and 31-71% in math. In contrast, the elementary school also struggles with state assessment performance, with proficiency rates ranging from 31-45% in ELA and 34-49% in math for grades 3-5.

Socioeconomic factors may play a role in the performance gap between the two schools. Both have relatively high rates of free/reduced-price lunch recipients, but the high school spends more per student ($15,066) compared to the elementary school ($12,480). Additionally, the high school has a lower student-teacher ratio of 10.4, while the elementary school's ratio is 11.4. These resource allocation differences suggest the district may need to examine its practices to ensure more equitable outcomes across all grade levels.
