Summary:
The city of Moravia, New York is home to two schools - Moravia Junior-Senior High School and Millard Fillmore Elementary School, both part of the Moravia Central School District. While Moravia Junior-Senior High School is a standout performer, ranking in the top 25% of New York high schools, Millard Fillmore Elementary School appears to be a lower-performing school in comparison.
Moravia Junior-Senior High School has consistently maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past 3 school years, indicating strong and stable performance. The school boasts an impressive 84.3% 4-year graduation rate, well above the district and state averages, and a lower dropout rate of 4.9%. Additionally, Moravia Junior-Senior High School students outperform their district and state peers on a majority of the New York State Assessments and Regents exams, particularly in math, science, and English Language Arts.
In contrast, Millard Fillmore Elementary School has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger and its students generally underperform compared to the district and state on the 3rd-5th grade New York State Assessments. The elementary school also has a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with a 50.9% free/reduced lunch rate, compared to 46.01% at the high school. This disparity in performance and student population between the two schools within the same district suggests opportunities for the district to learn from the practices and strategies employed at the high school and apply them to the elementary school to drive improvement.
