Summary:
The Williamson Central School District consists of three schools: Williamson Elementary School, Williamson Senior High School, and Williamson Middle School. The district serves students from the Williamson area, providing education from elementary through high school.
Among the three schools, Williamson Senior High School stands out with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 84.0%, and a lower dropout rate of 5.8% compared to the other schools. Williamson Middle School also performed better than the district and state averages on several 5th-8th grade state assessments in English Language Arts and Math. However, Williamson Elementary School struggled, with proficiency rates well below the district and state averages on the 2022-2023 New York State Assessments.
The data also reveals disparities in socioeconomic status and academic performance, with Williamson Senior High School and Williamson Middle School having higher percentages of students receiving free and reduced lunch, which may be correlated with their lower academic performance compared to the state averages. Additionally, the high chronic absenteeism rate of 24.2% at Williamson Senior High School is a significant concern that the district should address to improve student outcomes.
