Summary:
Pawling Central School District is home to a single middle school, Pawling Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. While the school has some areas of strength, such as high proficiency rates in certain Regents exams, its overall academic performance appears to be average compared to other middle schools in New York.
Pawling Middle School's statewide ranking has declined over the past three years, from 607 out of 1,500 in 2022-2023 to 925 out of 1,504 in 2023-2024. The school's proficiency rates on state assessments in Math and English Language Arts are generally lower than the district and state averages, with proficiency ranging from 19.23% in 8th grade Math to 70.1% in the Regents Living Environment exam.
Despite the school's relatively low performance, it has a low student-teacher ratio of 10.4 and high per-student spending of $21,124 for the 2022-2023 school year, both of which are better than the state averages. This suggests that the school may need to re-evaluate the effectiveness of its resource allocation to better support student achievement and improve its overall academic standing within the Pawling Central School District and the state of New York.
