Best Public Schools in Somers, NY


Summary:

The Somers Central School District in Somers, New York, is home to two highly-ranked schools: Somers Middle School and Somers Intermediate School. Both schools consistently outperform state averages on New York State Assessments in English Language Arts and Mathematics, with a significant percentage of students scoring proficient or better. Somers Middle School is ranked 230 out of 1,500 New York middle schools, while Somers Intermediate School is ranked 530 out of 2,439 New York elementary schools, both earning 4-star ratings from SchoolDigger.

The Somers Central School District as a whole is ranked 128 out of 866 districts in New York, further demonstrating the high-quality education provided in this area. Both Somers Middle School and Somers Intermediate School have relatively low percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a relatively affluent student population. However, this raises questions about equity and access for students from lower-income families, an area that may require further examination.

The schools' strong academic performance is likely supported by the district's significant investment in resources, with Somers Middle School spending $26,765 per student and Somers Intermediate School spending $24,597 per student. While these figures indicate a commitment to providing a high-quality education, the racial demographics of the schools, with a majority white student population and relatively low percentages of Black and Hispanic students, suggest the need to address issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion within the district.
