Best Public Schools in Zip Code 12117

Summary:

The 12117 zip code is home to two schools, Mayfield Elementary School and Mayfield Junior/Senior High School, both part of the Mayfield Central School District. While the district is ranked 367 out of 865 in New York, the high school stands out as the stronger performer, with a higher statewide ranking, better ratings, and stronger proficiency rates on state assessments.

Mayfield Junior/Senior High School has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranks 337 out of 1,242 high schools in New York, compared to Mayfield Elementary School's 3-star rating and 1,198 out of 2,445 elementary school ranking. The high school boasts higher proficiency rates across multiple subjects and grade levels, particularly in math and Regents exams, as well as a higher 4-year graduation rate of 84.3%.

However, the data also reveals areas for improvement, such as the significant performance gap between the elementary and high school, high chronic absenteeism at the high school, and relatively low proficiency rates in English Language Arts across both schools. Addressing these challenges, along with the potential impact of socioeconomic factors, could be key focus areas for the district to ensure all students in the 12117 zip code receive a well-rounded and equitable education.
