Port Chester-Rye Union Free School District


Summary:

The Port Chester-Rye Union Free School District consists of 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving a diverse and economically disadvantaged community in New York. While the district's schools have some standout features, such as the low student-teacher ratio at King Street School and the high per-student spending at Thomas A Edison School, the overall academic performance of the district is a concern, with proficiency rates on state assessments generally lower than the state average.

The district's student population is predominantly Hispanic, with 75-92% of students identifying as such across the schools. Additionally, a high percentage of students, ranging from 59.47% to 82.76%, are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a socioeconomically disadvantaged community. This context is important to consider when analyzing the academic performance data, which reveals significant disparities both within the district and compared to the state.

The data also highlights areas for improvement, such as the consistently low performance of Port Chester Middle School, which ranks in the bottom quartile of New York middle schools. The high school also has a graduation rate of 83.4% and a dropout rate of 8.8%, suggesting the need for targeted interventions to support student success. Overall, the Port Chester-Rye Union Free School District faces challenges in addressing the unique needs of its diverse and economically disadvantaged student population to improve academic outcomes.
