Mount Markham Elementary School also performs well, outperforming the state average in English Language Arts and Math proficiency for grades 3 and 4, and ranking 1,134 out of 2,439 New York elementary schools with a 3-star rating.

Additionally, the schools in the district have a predominantly white student population, with low racial diversity, which may indicate an area for the district to address in promoting more equitable outcomes for all students.
