Lansingburgh Senior High School has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of New York high schools, with a statewide ranking between 386 and 771 over the past several years. The school's academic performance, as measured by Regents/Common Core exam proficiency rates, is generally below the state and district averages across most subject areas, particularly in Algebra I, Chemistry, and Living Environment. The school's four-year graduation rate has ranged from 79.1% to 85.1%, which is lower than the state average, and its dropout rate has been as high as 12.5%, which is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the school has had a chronic absenteeism rate between 34.1% and 58.7%, which is also much higher than the state average.

While Lansingburgh Senior High School's performance is generally lower than that of nearby schools like Shaker High School, Waterford-Halfmoon Junior-Senior High School, and Colonie Central High School, it performs better than some other nearby schools, such as Albany High School, Watervliet Junior-Senior High School, and Cohoes High School, which have even lower academic performance and rankings. The school's high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds may be a contributing factor to these challenges, but the school's increased per-student spending and smaller class sizes suggest that there may be opportunities for improvement with the right strategies and resources.

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.
