Summary:
The Oakfield-Alabama Central School District is home to two schools - Oakfield-Alabama Middle School High School and Oakfield-Alabama Elementary School. The standout school in the district appears to be Oakfield-Alabama Middle School High School, which has consistently ranked in the top 30% of New York high schools over the past 3 years and earned a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Oakfield-Alabama Middle School High School boasts strong academic performance, with high proficiency rates on state assessments and Regents exams across multiple subjects, particularly in math, science, and chemistry. The school's 4-year graduation rate was 84.3% in 2022-2023, and its dropout rate was 4.9%. In contrast, the elementary school lags behind the middle/high school in terms of academic performance, suggesting room for improvement at the elementary level.
Both schools have relatively high percentages of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a need to address socioeconomic challenges that may be impacting student outcomes. The district's spending per student is higher at the middle/high school level compared to the elementary school, which may contribute to the stronger performance at the secondary level. Additionally, the smaller student-teacher ratios at both schools, especially the middle/high school, are likely a positive factor in supporting student learning and engagement.
