Best Public Schools in Zip Code 12414

Summary:

The 12414 zip code area is home to 3 schools - Catskill Elementary School, Catskill Senior High School, and Catskill Middle School - all part of the Catskill Central School District. While the schools face some challenges, the data reveals a mix of strengths, with Catskill Senior High School standing out as the highest-performing school in the area.

Catskill Senior High School ranks 407 out of 1,228 New York high schools and earns a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school demonstrates strong performance on Regents exams, with over 80% proficiency in several subjects. However, the school also has a relatively high dropout rate of 9.9%. In contrast, Catskill Middle School stands out for its exceptional 8th grade Science assessment scores, outperforming both the district and state averages.

Across the schools, the student population faces socioeconomic challenges, with free and reduced-price lunch rates ranging from 38% to 44.55%. This may contribute to the academic performance gaps observed compared to state averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Math. While the schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios, the consistent 2-star ratings for the elementary and middle schools suggest that targeted interventions and support may be needed to help these schools better serve their students and improve overall academic achievement and student outcomes.
