While the secondary school excels academically, the elementary school lags behind, suggesting a need for improvement in the earlier grades. The district as a whole is ranked 348 out of 866 school districts in New York and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.
McGraw Secondary School stands out for its strong performance on state assessments, with proficiency rates exceeding the state averages in many subject areas and grade levels. In contrast, McGraw Elementary School has lower proficiency rates compared to the state, indicating a need for targeted interventions to address the performance gap between the two schools.
Both schools have a predominantly white student population, with over 95% of students identifying as white. However, a significant portion of students, over 50% at both schools, receive free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a need for additional support and resources to address socioeconomic challenges. Additionally, the secondary school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 26.5% may be a contributing factor to its low four-year graduation rate of 0% and 8% dropout rate, highlighting the importance of addressing attendance and engagement issues.
