Summary:
The Camden Central School District in New York contains only one high school, Camden Senior High School. This school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past three years, dropping from 380 out of 1,190 New York high schools in 2021-2022 to 521 out of 1,242 in 2023-2024. While the school's performance on Regents/Common Core exams is generally above the state average in some subjects, it falls below the state average in others, indicating uneven academic performance.
Camden Senior High School has a four-year graduation rate of 84.3%, slightly below the state average, and a dropout rate of 4.9%, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, the school faces a significant challenge with chronic absenteeism, with a rate of 34.1%, significantly higher than the state average. This high rate of chronic absenteeism could be a contributing factor to the school's declining performance.
Financially, Camden Senior High School spends $18,929 per student, which is higher than the state average. However, the school serves a population with a relatively high percentage (45%) of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of students from low-income families. This socioeconomic factor may be an important consideration in understanding the school's performance and developing strategies for improvement.
