Summary:
The Madrid-Waddington Central School District in New York state is home to two schools: Madrid-Waddington Junior-Senior High School and Madrid-Waddington Elementary School. The district serves a predominantly white student population, with both schools having a significant proportion of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
The standout school in the district is the Madrid-Waddington Junior-Senior High School, which has consistently ranked among the top 20% of high schools in New York state over the past three years. This school boasts a 94.3% four-year graduation rate, significantly higher than the state average, and outperforms the district and state averages in most subject areas, particularly in 8th-grade science. In contrast, the elementary school lags behind the district and state in English Language Arts, especially in 5th grade.
While the high school spends $15,066 per student, the elementary school spends $12,480 per student, a significant difference that warrants further investigation to ensure equitable resource allocation across the district. Additionally, the high proportion of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at both schools suggests a need for additional support and resources to address socioeconomic challenges that may be impacting student achievement.
