Summary:
The Eden Central School District in New York is home to two high-performing elementary schools: G.L. Priess Primary School (grades PK-2) and Eden Elementary School (grades 3-6). Both schools demonstrate consistently strong academic performance, with Eden Elementary outperforming the district and state on the 2022-2023 New York State Assessments.
G.L. Priess Primary School stands out for its high percentage of white students (93.91%) and relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (18.55%). The school also has a low student-teacher ratio of 12.2, suggesting a more personalized learning environment. Eden Elementary School, on the other hand, excels academically, with 73.68% of 4th graders proficient or better in ELA, compared to 48.79% statewide.
While both schools are high-performing, the demographic homogeneity of their student populations is an area that may warrant further exploration and consideration. The district's effective allocation of resources, as evidenced by the schools' relatively low spending per student and strong academic outcomes, suggests opportunities for collaboration and the sharing of best practices within the district to further enhance educational outcomes for all students.
