Best Public Schools in Norwood, NY

Summary:

The city of Norwood, New York is home to three schools that serve students from elementary through high school: Norwood-Norfolk Elementary School, Norwood-Norfolk School (high school), and Norwood-Norfolk Middle School. While the high school has the highest statewide ranking among the three, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, the district as a whole is struggling, with all schools performing below state averages on key metrics like test scores and graduation rates.

The data reveals some standout schools within the district. Norwood-Norfolk School (high school) has a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 80.9%, though its dropout rate is also higher at 7.8%. Norwood-Norfolk Middle School has shown some improvement in its statewide ranking and has relatively strong 8th-grade test scores in English Language Arts and Science compared to the district and state averages.

However, the data also highlights significant challenges across the Norwood-Norfolk Central School District. All three schools have consistently low test scores, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math generally lower than the state averages. Additionally, the district faces high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 56.47% at the elementary school to 64.41% at the middle school, indicating potential socioeconomic and equity-related challenges that need to be addressed.
