Best Public Schools in Zip Code 12790

Summary:

The 12790 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Emma C Chase School, which serves students within the Monticello Central School District. While the school's academic performance is generally higher than the district average, it still lags behind statewide proficiency levels in English Language Arts and Mathematics. The school serves a diverse student population, with a majority White enrollment and significant Hispanic and African American representation, and a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

Emma C Chase School's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates, shows a mixed picture. In 3rd grade, only 18.75% of students were proficient or better in ELA and Math, compared to district averages of 11.83% and 10.27%, respectively. However, the school's 4th and 5th-grade proficiency rates were higher, with 35.14% and 56.25% of students proficient or better in ELA, and 51.35% and 46.88% in Math. While these results outpace the district, they still fall short of the statewide averages.

The school's high free/reduced-price lunch rate of 57.02% suggests that it serves a population facing significant economic challenges, which may contribute to the academic performance gaps observed. Additionally, the school's relatively high spending per student ($22,551) and low student-teacher ratio (9.7 students per teacher) indicate that substantial resources are being invested in the education of its students. However, these resources do not appear to be translating into commensurate student outcomes, highlighting the need for further investigation into the school's strategies, resource allocation, and support systems for its diverse student population.
