Best Public Schools in Zip Code 12148

Summary:

The 12148 zip code area has only one school, Glencliff School, which is an elementary school serving grades K-5 with a total enrollment of 355 students. Glencliff School's academic performance is mixed, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) below the Niskayuna Central School District average, but stronger performance in Math compared to both the district and state averages. The school's statewide ranking and SchoolDigger rating have declined over the past three years, which may be a concern.

Despite the mixed academic performance, Glencliff School appears to be well-resourced, spending $12,194 per student and maintaining a low student-teacher ratio of 11.8. The school also serves a diverse student population, with 67.04% White, 13.24% Asian, and 6.48% Hispanic students. However, only 22.54% of students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively low percentage of economically disadvantaged students.

Overall, Glencliff School is the sole educational option in the 12148 zip code area, and its performance is a mix of strengths and areas for improvement. While the school's Math proficiency is a bright spot, the declining ranking and rating, as well as the below-average ELA performance, suggest that the school may benefit from further investigation and potential interventions to address these challenges and ensure all students receive a high-quality education.
