Summary:
The Seneca Falls, New York area is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Seneca Falls Central School District. While the schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios, they generally underperform academically compared to state averages, with the middle school and one elementary school ranking in the bottom 25% of their respective categories in New York.
The high school, Mynderse Academy, stands out with a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 93.1% and a lower dropout rate of 3.4%. It is also ranked 401 out of 1,228 New York high schools, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. In contrast, Seneca Falls Middle School had the lowest proficiency rates, with only 10.71% of 8th graders proficient in Math.
Socioeconomic factors appear to play a role in academic performance, as the schools with the highest percentages of free/reduced lunch recipients, Seneca Falls Middle School and Elizabeth Cady Stanton Elementary School, also have the lowest academic proficiency rates. Additionally, the schools have a predominantly white student population, raising questions about equity and access to educational opportunities for minority students in the Seneca Falls area.
