Summary:
The 13783 zip code area is home to two schools, Hancock Junior-Senior High School and Hancock Elementary School, both part of the Hancock Central School District. Unfortunately, the data paints a picture of two underperforming schools in a struggling school district, with academic performance well below state averages.
Neither Hancock Junior-Senior High School nor Hancock Elementary School appear to be standout performers. The high school has a 4-year graduation rate of 84.3% and a dropout rate of 4.9%, while the elementary school's test scores are also below state averages. Both schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios, but this does not seem to be translating into better academic outcomes. Additionally, the Hancock Central School District as a whole is ranked 695 out of 865 school districts in New York, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Economic challenges may be contributing to the academic difficulties in this area, as both schools have high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, suggesting a relatively high level of economic disadvantage in the community. Despite the relatively high spending per student at both schools, the data indicates that more needs to be done to improve the educational outcomes for students in the 13783 zip code area.
