Hyde Park Central School District

The Hyde Park Central School District consists of 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students in the Hyde Park area. The data reveals a mix of high-performing and lower-performing schools, with Netherwood School standing out as the top-performing elementary school in the district based on its exceptional proficiency rates on state assessments.

While Franklin D. Roosevelt Senior High School has a relatively high 4-year graduation rate and low dropout rate, the district's middle school and some of the elementary schools lag behind in academic performance. There appears to be a correlation between the socioeconomic status of students, as measured by free/reduced lunch rates, and academic achievement, with schools serving more economically disadvantaged populations, like Violet Avenue School, tending to have lower proficiency rates.

The data also reveals inconsistencies in school rankings and ratings over time, suggesting the district may need to examine its curriculum alignment and instructional practices, particularly in the upper elementary grades where proficiency rates often decline. Overall, the Hyde Park Central School District has room for improvement, but the standout performance of Netherwood School provides a model for the district to emulate across its other schools.
