Summary:
Mount Markham Central School District has one middle school, Mount Markham Middle School, which serves students in grades 5-8. The school's performance on state assessments is mixed, with some grades performing better than others. While the school's spending per student and student-teacher ratio are higher than the state average, its overall academic achievement remains below the state average in many areas.
Mount Markham Middle School's performance on English Language Arts (ELA) and Math state assessments varies significantly across grade levels. Seventh-grade ELA proficiency is higher than the state average, but eighth-grade ELA and fifth- and seventh-grade Math proficiency are all lower than the state average. However, the school performs exceptionally well on Regents exams, with 100% proficiency in Algebra I and 90.91% proficiency in Living Environment.
The school's higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratio suggest that it has access to more resources and smaller class sizes, which could potentially contribute to improved student outcomes. However, the school's overall performance on state assessments is still below the state average, indicating that simply having more resources may not be the sole factor in driving student success. Additionally, the school's high free and reduced-price lunch rate suggests that it serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, which can impact student learning and achievement.
