Summary:
The Watervliet City School District in New York serves two schools: Watervliet Junior-Senior High School and Watervliet Elementary School. The district as a whole is ranked 811 out of 865 school districts in New York and is rated 0 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, indicating that the district is performing significantly below the state average.
Both the Watervliet Junior-Senior High School and the Watervliet Elementary School have consistently low statewide rankings and ratings, with the elementary school ranking in the bottom 15% of New York elementary schools and the junior-senior high school ranking in the bottom 25% of New York high schools. The district's low test scores, high dropout rates, and high chronic absenteeism suggest that the Watervliet City School District is facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students.
The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 66.96% for the junior-senior high school and 72.01% for the elementary school, indicates that the district serves a population with a high level of economic disadvantage, which may contribute to the academic challenges faced by the schools. Additionally, the relatively low spending per student and the lower-than-average student-teacher ratios suggest that the district may be facing resource constraints that could be impacting its ability to provide the necessary support and resources to its students.
