Summary:
The Hunter-Tannersville Central School District in New York is home to two schools: Hunter Elementary School (grades PK-9) and Hunter-Tannersville Middle School High School (grades 7-12). While both schools serve the same community, the data reveals notable differences in their academic performance and outcomes.
The standout school in the district appears to be the Hunter-Tannersville Middle School High School, which has a higher statewide ranking, stronger performance on Regents exams, and relatively high graduation rates. In contrast, the Hunter Elementary School has more mixed performance, with some grade levels excelling on state assessments while others struggle, particularly in math. The elementary school also has a higher free/reduced lunch rate, indicating a greater need for additional support and resources for economically disadvantaged students.
Despite the district-level spending per student being quite high, the significant performance gap between the two schools suggests a need to examine how resources are being allocated and utilized to ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students in the Hunter-Tannersville Central School District. Identifying the factors driving the differences in student outcomes and implementing targeted strategies to improve the performance of the elementary school could be crucial steps in addressing this disparity.
