Best Public Schools in Zip Code 12827

Summary:

The 12827 zip code area is home to two schools - Fort Ann Elementary School and Fort Ann Middle/High School, both part of the Fort Ann Central School District. While Fort Ann Middle/High School is a standout performer, ranking 62nd out of 1,228 high schools in New York, the district faces some challenges related to academic achievement, graduation rates, and resource allocation.

Fort Ann Middle/High School is a strong academic performer, with students consistently exceeding state proficiency averages on Regents exams across multiple subjects. However, the school's graduation rate of 79.4% is lower than the state average, and its dropout rate of 17.6% is relatively high. In contrast, Fort Ann Elementary School has strong 3rd-grade ELA and math proficiency rates, but its 6th-8th grade performance is more mixed, with some grades performing above and others below the state averages.

Both schools serve a predominantly white student population, with a significant proportion of students from low-income families. The per-student spending at both schools is lower than the state average, which may impact the quality of educational resources and support services available to students. Additionally, the difference in student-teacher ratios between the elementary and middle/high school, with the latter having a lower ratio, may be a factor in the schools' varying academic outcomes.
