Duanesburg Central School District

The Duanesburg Central School District in New York operates two schools: Duanesburg Elementary School and Duanesburg High School. Both schools demonstrate strong academic performance, with students exceeding state averages on key assessments. The high school stands out with an impressive 98% four-year graduation rate and a 0% dropout rate, suggesting the district is highly effective at keeping students engaged and on track to graduate.

Duanesburg Elementary School and Duanesburg High School both have a predominantly white student population, which does not fully reflect the diversity of the broader community. However, the schools make up for this with their academic excellence, with both outperforming the state average on English Language Arts and Math assessments. The high school, in particular, excels in 8th grade ELA, Math, and Science, potentially due to its lower student-teacher ratio of 8.2 compared to the elementary school's 14.5.

While the Duanesburg Central School District is ranked 335 out of 866 school districts in New York, both schools receive a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating they are performing at an average level compared to other districts in the state. The district may want to consider ways to further improve performance, particularly in areas where they are still slightly below the state average, while also addressing potential equity and inclusion concerns related to the racial makeup of the student population.
