Summary:
The city of Olean, New York is home to 5 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 high school, and 2 alternative schools. The data reveals a mixed picture of school performance, with Olean Senior High School standing out as a relatively strong performer, while the elementary schools show room for improvement.
Olean Senior High School has a 4-year graduation rate of 84.3%, which is above the state average, and generally performs above the district and state averages on Regents exams, particularly in Chemistry, Algebra II, and U.S. History. However, the school lags behind on 8th grade state assessments in ELA and Math, suggesting potential challenges in preparing students for the transition to high school.
The two elementary schools, East View Elementary and Washington West Elementary, have relatively low performance on 3rd grade state assessments, with proficiency rates well below the state average in both ELA and Math. The alternative schools, Olean Intermediate-Middle and Cattaraugus-Allegany-Erie-Wyoming BOCES, do not have comprehensive data available, making it difficult to fully evaluate their performance. Overall, the data suggests opportunities for targeted interventions to address the performance gaps across the Olean school district.
