Best Public Schools in Wampsville, NY

Summary:

The city of Wampsville, New York has only one public middle school, Otto L Shortell Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. The school is part of the Oneida City School District, which is ranked 673 out of 865 school districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Otto L Shortell Middle School has seen a steady decline in its statewide ranking over the past 3 years, going from 1023 out of 1479 middle schools in 2021-2022 to 1322 out of 1504 in 2023-2024, with a 1-star rating. The school's proficiency rates on state assessments are significantly below the state averages in English Language Arts and Math across grades 6-8. However, the school performs much better on Regents exams, with 97.3% proficiency in Living Environment and 100% proficiency in Algebra I.

Despite the school's higher-than-average spending per student ($16,677) and lower student-teacher ratio (9.5), the data suggests Otto L Shortell Middle School is facing significant academic challenges. The high rate of free and reduced lunch recipients (52.94%) indicates the school serves a predominantly low-income student population, which may present unique challenges and require additional resources and support. Addressing the root causes of the school's declining performance and proficiency gaps should be a top priority for the district and school leadership.
