Voorheesville Middle School

Summary:

Voorheesville Middle School is a public middle school serving 296 students in grades 6-8 in the Voorheesville Central School District, located in Voorheesville, New York. The school has consistently ranked among the top middle schools in the state, with a statewide ranking between 76-281 over the past 10 years and a 4-5 star rating from SchoolDigger.

Voorheesville Middle School stands out for its strong academic performance, consistently outperforming the state average on New York State Assessments across all grade levels and subject areas. In 2022-2023, the school had significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math compared to the state averages. However, the school's student population is predominantly white (86.82%), which is higher than the state average, and it has a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (14.19%), suggesting a socioeconomic advantage. The school also spends more per student ($14,462) than the state average, which may contribute to its academic success.

When compared to nearby middle schools, such as North Albany Academy Middle School, Mont Pleasant Middle School, and Central Park Middle School, Voorheesville Middle School stands out for its significantly higher academic performance, lower racial diversity, and higher socioeconomic status. These factors suggest that Voorheesville Middle School is providing a high-quality education, but the lack of racial diversity may be an area for the school to address.

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.
