Oswego City School District

Summary:

The Oswego City School District in New York consists of 7 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district as a whole is ranked 703 out of 865 school districts in New York and is rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

While the district faces significant challenges, with most schools performing below state averages, there are some standout schools. Oswego Middle School appears to be one of the stronger schools, ranking higher than the district average on state assessments for 7th and 8th grade English Language Arts and Math. Minetto Elementary School also performs better than the district average on state assessments, with higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math for grades 3-6.

However, the elementary schools in the district show wide variation in academic performance, with proficiency rates ranging from 11.36% at FitzHugh Park Elementary to 30% at Leighton Elementary on the 3rd grade ELA assessment. This highlights the challenges faced by high-poverty schools in the district, as the elementary schools with the highest rates of free/reduced lunch recipients also tend to have the lowest academic proficiency rates.
