Summary:
The 12095 zip code area is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. While the schools serve a relatively high proportion of economically disadvantaged students, Johnstown High School stands out as a strong performer, consistently improving its statewide ranking and exceeding state and district averages on several Regents exams. In contrast, the two elementary schools, Warren Street School and Pleasant Avenue School, show mixed academic performance, with some grade levels and subjects outperforming state averages while others fall behind.
The alternative school, Hamilton-Fulton-Montgomery BOCES, serves a unique population with a lower student-teacher ratio compared to the other schools in the area. While specific performance data is not provided, the alternative nature of this school suggests it may cater to students with specialized needs or challenges.
Across the schools, resource allocation varies, with Johnstown High School spending the most per student and having a lower student-teacher ratio. These differences in funding and staffing may contribute to the observed performance disparities, highlighting the importance of equitable resource distribution to support student learning and success across the Johnstown City School District and the Hamilton-Fulton-Montgomery BOCES.
