Best Public Schools in Marcy, NY


Summary:

The city of Marcy, New York is home to two schools: Whitesboro High School and Marcy Elementary School, both part of the Whitesboro Central School District. While Whitesboro High School serves a predominantly white student population, Marcy Elementary stands out as a high-performing school with smaller class sizes, stronger academic achievement, and higher per-student spending.

Marcy Elementary consistently outperforms the district and state averages on state assessments for English Language Arts and Math across grades 3-5. For example, in 3rd grade Math, 78.72% of Marcy Elementary students scored proficient or better, compared to 70% for the district and 53.68% for the state. This academic success may be attributed to Marcy Elementary's lower student-to-teacher ratio of 10.9, the lowest in the district, which allows for more personalized attention for students.

However, the data also reveals potential areas for improvement. Both Whitesboro High School and Marcy Elementary have a predominantly white student population, suggesting a lack of racial diversity in the Marcy school system. Additionally, the difference in free/reduced lunch rates between Whitesboro High School (34.12%) and Marcy Elementary (28.48%) indicates that Marcy Elementary may serve a more affluent student population, which could contribute to its higher academic achievement. Addressing these disparities and replicating Marcy Elementary's success across the district could be valuable goals for the Whitesboro Central School District.
