Summary:
The Schoharie Central School District in New York contains a single high school, Schoharie High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. While the school has some areas of strength, such as its performance on certain Regents exams, it also faces significant challenges, particularly in its declining performance on state assessments and high chronic absenteeism rates.
Schoharie High School's four-year graduation rate of 84.3% is slightly below the state average, and its dropout rate of 4.9% is higher than the state average. The school's performance on state assessments in English Language Arts and Math has declined in recent years, with proficiency rates dropping significantly in some grade levels. However, the school performs relatively well on Regents exams, particularly in subjects like Algebra II, Living Environment, and Physics.
One area of concern for Schoharie High School is its high chronic absenteeism rate of 34.1%, which is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, nearly half of the school's students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage in the community. While the school's spending per student of $14,158 is slightly above the state average, its statewide ranking has declined over the past few years, from 561 out of 1,228 New York high schools in 2022-2023 to 607 out of 1,242 in 2023-2024.
