Summary:
The Altmar-Parish-Williamstown Central School District in New York contains a single high school, Altmar-Parish-Williamstown Junior/Senior High School, which serves grades 7-12. The school is performing below average compared to other high schools in the state, ranking 769 out of 1,242 and earning a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Altmar-Parish-Williamstown Junior/Senior High School faces several challenges, including a 4.9% dropout rate, which is higher than the state average, and a concerning 34.1% chronic absenteeism rate. The school's performance on state assessments and Regents exams is generally below the state average, with only a few subject areas meeting or exceeding state-level performance. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students (56.9%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
Despite the district's relatively high spending of $19,999 per student, which is above the state average, the school's performance has been declining over the past three years. This suggests the need for a comprehensive, data-driven approach to school improvement, including targeted interventions, resource allocation, and community engagement to address the academic, attendance, and socioeconomic challenges facing the school.
