Summary:
The Caledonia-Mumford Central School District in New York serves students from two schools - Caledonia-Mumford Middle/High School and Caledonia-Mumford Elementary School. The data analysis reveals that the middle/high school is a standout performer, ranking in the top 22% of high schools statewide and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Caledonia-Mumford Middle/High School boasts strong academic results, with high proficiency rates on state assessments and Regents exams that often exceed state and district averages. The school also has a relatively low dropout rate of 4.9% and a solid 84.3% four-year graduation rate. In contrast, the elementary school, while still performing well, has more mixed academic results compared to the middle/high school. The district may want to examine the factors contributing to the differences in performance and resource allocation between the two schools.
Other key insights include the higher spending per student at the middle/high school ($12,046) compared to the elementary school ($8,356), as well as the concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 34.1% at the middle/high school. The demographic differences, such as the higher free/reduced lunch rate at the middle/high school, may also be an area worth further investigation to ensure the district is meeting the needs of all its students effectively.
