Summary:
The Norwich City School District in New York has only one high school, Norwich High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's performance is mixed, with strengths in certain academic subjects but struggles in others. While the district spends more per student than the state average, the school's graduation rate is slightly below average, and its chronic absenteeism rate is significantly higher than the state's.
Norwich High School is ranked 587 out of 1,242 high schools in New York, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's four-year graduation rate is 84.3%, which is slightly below the state average, and its dropout rate is 4.9%, which is higher than the state average. However, the school outperforms the state average in several Regents/Common Core exams, including Chemistry, Algebra II, and Physics, but underperforms in Algebra I and Geometry.
The school serves a relatively economically disadvantaged population, with 47.62% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, which is higher than the state average. The district's high spending per student, at $14,434 per student, suggests a commitment to supporting the school, but the performance metrics indicate that there may be opportunities to optimize the use of these resources to improve student outcomes, particularly in areas where the school is underperforming.
