Best Public Schools in New City, NY

Summary:

The city of New City, New York is home to 7 schools, including 6 elementary schools and 1 high school, spread across two school districts - Clarkstown Central School District and East Ramapo Central School District (Spring Valley). The data reveals a stark contrast in academic performance between the schools in these two districts, with the Clarkstown schools consistently outperforming the state averages while the East Ramapo school struggles significantly.

Clarkstown North Senior High School stands out as a top-performing high school, ranking among the top 20% in New York state with strong test scores and a relatively low dropout rate. Similarly, Laurel Plains Elementary School and Little Tor Elementary School, both in the Clarkstown district, are exceptional performers, ranking among the top 15% and 10% of elementary schools in the state, respectively.

In contrast, Summit Park Elementary School in the East Ramapo district struggles significantly, with only around 10% proficiency in ELA and Math, and a very high free and reduced lunch rate of 71.45%, indicating a high proportion of economically disadvantaged students. The stark differences in performance and resource allocation between the two districts suggest that district-level factors, such as funding and leadership, play a crucial role in shaping the educational outcomes of the schools in this area.
