Summary:
The Newark Central School District in New York has only one high school, Newark Senior High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's performance data reveals a mix of strengths and challenges compared to district and state averages.
Newark Senior High School's four-year graduation rate of 84.3% is lower than the state average, and its dropout rate of 4.9% is higher. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism at 34.1%, significantly above the state average. Academically, the school's performance on Regents/Common Core exams is mixed, with some subjects like U.S. History and Government performing better than the district and state, while others like Algebra I and Geometry lag behind.
Despite the school's relatively high spending of $21,180 per student and a low student-teacher ratio of 9.6, these factors do not seem to be translating into consistently strong academic outcomes. The school serves a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 54.15% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, which may contribute to the challenges the school faces. Overall, Newark Senior High School appears to have room for improvement in areas such as attendance, graduation rates, and academic performance to better support the needs of its student population.
