Geneva City School District

The Geneva City School District in New York serves a diverse population of students across 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the district faces significant challenges, including low academic performance and high levels of economic disadvantage, a closer look at the data reveals some standout schools and areas for improvement.

Geneva High School, the largest school in the district with 613 students, stands out for its relatively low 4-year graduation rate of 73.2% and high dropout rate of 13.3%. The school's academic performance on state assessments is also well below the state average, with only 20-25% of students proficient in English Language Arts and Math. Similarly, North Street Elementary School, the second-largest school with 595 students, has very low academic performance, with only 19-25% of students proficient in core subjects.

Across the district, the schools serve a population with significant economic challenges, with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 57.78% to 75.13%. This economic disadvantage may be a contributing factor to the academic struggles observed, and the district should consider targeted interventions and strategies to support student success. Additionally, the disparities in per-student spending, from $13,392 at North Street Elementary to $17,263 at West Street Elementary, suggest potential inequities in resource allocation that may impact educational opportunities for students.
