Summary:
The Johnson City Central School District consists of 4 schools serving grades K-12, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The data reveals a district that is struggling to provide a high-quality education, with consistently low performance across multiple metrics compared to state averages.
The Johnson City Middle School and Johnson City Elementary/Intermediate School stand out as the weakest performers, ranking in the bottom 12% and 16% of New York schools, respectively, with test scores significantly below state averages. In contrast, the Johnson City Senior High School appears to be the district's strongest performer, with higher test scores and graduation rates, though it still faces challenges such as a high chronic absenteeism rate.
Across the district, the schools serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, with high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This raises concerns about equity in educational opportunities and resources. Addressing the underlying issues, such as chronic absenteeism and implementing targeted interventions, may be necessary to improve outcomes for the students in the Johnson City Central School District.
