Compared to nearby schools, such as Coman Hill School in the same district and Roaring Brook School in the Chappaqua Central School District, Wampus School's performance is notably stronger. This may be attributed to the school's high per-student spending, ranging from $22,456 to $26,039 over the past four years, as well as its small student-teacher ratios of around 10.6 students per teacher. Additionally, the low percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients at Wampus School, ranging from 3.44% to 4.78% over the past three years, suggests a relatively high socioeconomic status of the student population, which may also contribute to the school's academic success.
