Summary:
The city of Sherburne, New York is home to three schools that are part of the Sherburne-Earlville Central School District: one elementary school, one middle school, and one high school. While the schools show varying levels of academic performance, the Sherburne-Earlville Senior High School stands out as a top performer, consistently ranking in the top half of New York high schools and excelling in several Regents exam subjects. The Sherburne-Earlville Middle School has also shown improvement in its statewide ranking and strong performance in specific subject areas like Regents Algebra I and Living Environment.
Academically, the schools in Sherburne demonstrate a mix of strengths and weaknesses. The elementary school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math are generally below state averages, while the middle school's performance is more varied, with stronger results in 7th-grade math and Regents exams, but lower proficiency in 6th and 8th-grade ELA and math. The high school, on the other hand, excels in several Regents exams, with proficiency rates above the state average in subjects like Algebra II, English Language Arts, and Physics.
The data also reveals differences in resource allocation and student demographics across the schools. The high school has the highest per-student spending and the lowest student-teacher ratio, while the elementary school serves a relatively lower percentage of free/reduced-price lunch recipients compared to the other two schools. These disparities suggest the district may need to examine ways to ensure equitable support and resources for all students, regardless of their socioeconomic background, and address factors contributing to the performance gaps between the schools.
