General Brown Central School District

The General Brown Central School District in New York consists of 3 schools: 2 elementary schools (Brownville School and Dexter Elementary School) and 1 junior-senior high school (General Brown Junior-Senior High School). The data reveals that the high school is a standout performer, consistently ranking in the top 35% of New York high schools and maintaining a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

General Brown Junior-Senior High School stands out for its impressive test scores, with 8th-grade students outperforming the state average in ELA, Math, and Science by a significant margin. The school also has very high Regents exam pass rates, with several subjects exceeding 85% proficiency. Additionally, the school has a relatively low dropout rate of 4.9% and a solid 84.3% 4-year graduation rate. In contrast, the elementary schools, while ranked lower overall, have their own strengths, such as Brownville School's strong 6th-grade ELA and Math performance, which exceeds the district and state averages.

The data also reveals some interesting differences in spending per student and free/reduced lunch rates across the schools. The two elementary schools have significantly higher per-student spending compared to the junior-senior high school, which could indicate a focus on early childhood education or additional resources allocated to the elementary level. Additionally, the higher free/reduced lunch rates at the elementary schools suggest potential socioeconomic challenges that may impact student learning, and understanding how the district addresses these disparities could provide valuable insights.
