Hannibal High School is a public high school located in Hannibal, NY, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 359 students. The school is part of the Hannibal Central School District, which is ranked 804 out of 865 school districts in New York and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Hannibal High School consistently ranks in the bottom half of New York high schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating below-average academic performance. The school struggles to perform well across different student subgroups, with particularly concerning rankings for special education and low socioeconomic status students. Hannibal High School also has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 34-49% in recent years, and its proficiency rates on Regents exams are generally below the state and district averages. In comparison, nearby schools like Weedsport Junior-Senior High School and Charles W. Baker High School consistently outperform Hannibal High School on academic metrics and rankings.

The challenges facing Hannibal High School are likely exacerbated by the school's high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with over 70% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Additionally, the school's ranking and performance have been gradually declining over the past 10 years, suggesting that the school is facing increasing difficulties in providing a quality education to its students. While Hannibal High School faces significant challenges, there are opportunities for improvement, such as increasing graduation rates, reducing chronic absenteeism, and improving proficiency on Regents exams, especially in core subject areas like math and science.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
