Summary:
The 13652 zip code area is home to two schools, Edwards-Knox Elementary School and Edwards-Knox Junior-Senior High School, both part of the Edwards-Knox Central School District. While the junior-senior high school demonstrates strong academic performance, the elementary school appears to be struggling, with proficiency rates well below state averages on standardized tests.
The standout school in this area is Edwards-Knox Junior-Senior High School, which ranked 211 out of 1,228 New York high schools and earned a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has high proficiency rates on Regents exams across subjects, and a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 82.5%. In contrast, Edwards-Knox Elementary School is underperforming, with proficiency rates well below state averages on the 3rd-6th grade New York State Assessments in both English Language Arts and Math.
Both schools have a relatively small enrollment, with under 300 students each, and a significant proportion of students (over 55%) qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating high levels of economic disadvantage in the community. The racial makeup of the schools is also very homogeneous, with over 94% of students identifying as White. While the spending per student is relatively consistent between the elementary and high school, the stark academic performance differences suggest a potential disconnect in the quality of education between the two levels within the district.
