Best Public Schools in Zip Code 13135


Summary:

The 13135 zip code area is home to 3 schools in the Phoenix Central School District, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the schools face some challenges, such as high rates of economic disadvantage and underperformance on certain metrics, there are also bright spots, particularly at Emerson J Dillon Middle School.

Emerson J Dillon Middle School stands out as the highest-ranked school in the data set, outperforming the district and state averages on several key test scores, including 8th grade Science and Algebra I. The school also maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio, suggesting more individualized attention for students. In contrast, John C Birdlebough High School, while the highest-ranked high school in the data set, still underperforms the state average on several Regents exams and has a high chronic absenteeism rate, which may contribute to its lower graduation rates.

Across the district, the schools face challenges, with all three ranking below the state average on most metrics. The high rates of free/reduced lunch recipients and the predominantly white student populations in these schools may point to issues of equity and access to quality education for underserved populations. Addressing these concerns, as well as learning from the successes of Emerson J Dillon Middle School, could be valuable next steps for the Phoenix Central School District.
