South Glens Falls Central School District

Summary:

The South Glens Falls Central School District in New York serves students from 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district's performance is generally below the state average, with some standout schools like Ballard Elementary School and Harrison Avenue Elementary School showing stronger academic results.

Ballard Elementary stands out with the lowest student-teacher ratio (12.6) among the elementary schools, potentially offering a more personalized learning environment. Harrison Avenue Elementary has the highest percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients (52.65%) in the district, suggesting it serves a more economically disadvantaged population. However, the district as a whole faces challenges, as evidenced by its low ranking of 659 out of 866 districts in New York and a 1 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger.

Across the district, there are concerning trends of declining performance at the elementary and middle school levels, as well as significant disparities in student-teacher ratios and academic outcomes between schools. These findings indicate potential equity issues and the need for targeted interventions to support student success, particularly at the schools serving more economically disadvantaged communities.
