Summary:
The 13606 zip code area is home to a single elementary school, Maynard P. Wilson Elementary School, which serves grades PK-5 and has a total enrollment of 520 students. The school is part of the South Jefferson Central School District, which is ranked 574 out of 866 school districts in New York and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
While Maynard P. Wilson Elementary School has some positive metrics, such as higher-than-average proficiency rates in 3rd grade English Language Arts and Math compared to the district and state, its overall performance and rankings suggest it is not among the top-performing schools in the region. The school's student population is predominantly white, with over 94% of students identifying as such, and over one-third of students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage.
The school's performance on the New York State Assessments appears to decline as students progress through the grades, with significantly lower proficiency rates in 4th and 5th grades compared to 3rd grade. This could indicate potential issues with curriculum, instruction, or student support that need to be addressed. Additionally, the school's spending per student and student-teacher ratio are relatively favorable compared to state and national averages, but these metrics alone do not necessarily translate to better educational outcomes.
