Ogdensburg City School District


Summary:

The Ogdensburg City School District in New York serves students from preschool through 12th grade across 3 schools. Based on the available data, Ogdensburg Free Academy, the district's high school, stands out as the top-performing school, with consistently high test scores, a strong graduation rate, and a 4-5 star rating from SchoolDigger. In contrast, the two elementary schools, John F Kennedy School and Madill School, lag behind, with lower proficiency rates on state assessments and rankings in the bottom half of elementary schools statewide.

The district as a whole faces challenges, with all three schools having high rates of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a socioeconomically disadvantaged student population. Despite spending above the state average per student and maintaining relatively small class sizes, the elementary schools are still struggling to meet state proficiency standards, suggesting that factors beyond just funding and staffing may be impacting student learning. The district's overall ranking of 456 out of 865 in New York and 2-star rating from SchoolDigger further highlight the need for improvement across the district to better support student achievement.

While Ogdensburg Free Academy stands out as the high-performing school in the district, the data reveals significant challenges at the elementary school level that the Ogdensburg City School District will need to address to improve overall student outcomes and provide a more equitable education for all students.
