Summary:
The Otego-Unadilla Central School District is home to a single middle school, Unatego Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. Despite its small enrollment of 188 students, Unatego Middle School stands out as a high-performing institution, consistently outpacing district and state averages on various academic measures.
Unatego Middle School's academic prowess is evident in its strong performance on state assessments. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade English Language Arts were 53.85%, 50%, and 44%, respectively, compared to the district averages of 53.85%, 48.08%, and 42.31%, and the state averages of 43.64%, 49.56%, and 51.88%. Additionally, the school boasts a 100% proficiency rate on the Regents Exams for Living Environment and Algebra I, significantly outpacing the district and state averages.
Further contributing to Unatego Middle School's success is its relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.7, which likely allows for more personalized attention and support for students. While the school serves a population with a relatively high free/reduced lunch rate of 46.81%, its strong academic performance suggests that the district is effectively allocating resources to support student learning and achievement, despite potential socioeconomic challenges.
