Best Public Schools in Zip Code 14461


Summary:

The 14461 zip code area has only one school, Gorham Elementary School, which serves grades 3-5 with a total enrollment of 239 students. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.8, its academic performance, as measured by state assessment proficiency rates, is consistently below the state average in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Math across all grade levels.

Gorham Elementary School has a predominantly white student population (97.07%), and a high percentage of students (59.41%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students. This socioeconomic factor may contribute to the school's lower academic performance, which is also reflective of the overall performance of the Gorham-Middlesex Central School District (Marcus Whitman). The school's spending per student, at $16,535, is higher than the state average, suggesting that additional resources may be needed to address the educational needs of the student population.

While the small class sizes at Gorham Elementary School could be a potential strength, the school's academic performance remains a concern. Further investigation into the school's specific programs, teaching practices, and targeted support for economically disadvantaged students could provide valuable insights to address these challenges and improve the educational experience for the students in the 14461 zip code area.
