Summary:
The Carmel Central School District in New York serves students from 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the district has a mix of high-performing and lower-performing schools, Carmel High School stands out as the strongest performer, ranking 240th out of 1,228 high schools in the state.
Among the elementary schools, Kent Primary School is the top performer, ranking 1,047th out of 2,439 elementary schools in New York. It has the lowest student-teacher ratio and the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math for 3rd and 4th grades. In contrast, the other elementary and middle schools in the district generally lag behind state averages in academic proficiency, suggesting potential areas for improvement in the district's educational programs and resources.
Socioeconomic factors may be contributing to the disparities in performance, as the elementary schools have higher free/reduced lunch rates, ranging from 29.19% to 40.98%, indicating higher levels of economic disadvantage among their student populations. Additionally, some of the middle and elementary schools have seen their statewide rankings decline over the past few years, a concerning trend that warrants further investigation by the district.
