Summary:
The Mount Markham Central School District in New York consists of three schools: Mount Markham Elementary School, Mount Markham Senior High School, and Mount Markham Middle School. The district serves a total of 1,067 students across these three schools.
Among the standout schools in the district, Mount Markham Senior High School is a top performer, ranking in the top third of high schools in New York and consistently maintaining a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school boasts strong performance on Regents exams, with several subjects having over 80% proficiency rates. In contrast, Mount Markham Middle School struggles, with proficiency rates below the state average in most 5th-8th grade ELA and Math assessments.
While the district's overall performance places it in the middle tier, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, the data reveals a stark contrast in school performance. Mount Markham Elementary School outperforms the state average in 3rd and 4th-grade ELA and Math assessments, but the middle school's underperformance suggests a need for targeted interventions to improve student outcomes. Additionally, the high percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients across all schools indicates a significant level of economic need within the district, raising questions about the equitable distribution of resources and support.
