Best Public Schools in Zip Code 13730

Summary:

The 13730 zip code area is home to two schools - Afton Junior/Senior High School and Afton Elementary School - both part of the Afton Central School District. Unfortunately, the data reveals that these schools are consistently underperforming compared to state averages across a range of metrics, including graduation rates, test scores, and Regents exam pass rates.

Both Afton schools have relatively low performance, with the high school ranking in the bottom half of New York high schools and the elementary school in the bottom quarter of New York elementary schools. Graduation rates at the high school are below the state average, and dropout rates are higher. Proficiency rates on state assessments, particularly in math, lag behind state averages at both schools. Additionally, the Afton schools have high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting significant economic challenges in the school community.

Despite higher per-student spending and relatively low student-teacher ratios, the Afton schools are still underperforming. This raises questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources within the district, and whether the funding is being directed towards the most impactful interventions and strategies. However, the data also indicates that the schools may have the potential to improve in certain areas, such as Algebra II and English Language Arts Regents exam pass rates, with the right support and strategies. Addressing the underlying challenges, such as socioeconomic factors, will be crucial in order to drive meaningful improvements and better outcomes for the Afton school community.
