Best Public Schools in Zip Code 14609


Summary:

The 14609 zip code area of Rochester, New York is home to 9 schools spanning elementary, middle, and high school grades across two school districts - the Rochester City School District and the East Irondequoit Central School District. While some schools in this area, like East Irondequoit Middle School and Vertus Charter School, demonstrate relatively strong academic performance, others, particularly those in the Rochester district, face significant challenges in improving student outcomes.

East Irondequoit Middle School stands out as the top performer, with 45.3% of 8th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts and 52% of 7th graders proficient or better in math, exceeding the state averages. In contrast, School 52-Frank Fowler Dow, an elementary school in the Rochester district, had some of the highest proficiency rates among the Rochester schools, with 30.77% of 3rd graders proficient or better in ELA and 48.72% of 4th graders proficient or better in math. The Vertus Charter School also demonstrated relatively strong performance on Regents exams compared to the other high schools in the area.

The data highlights significant disparities in academic performance between the Rochester and East Irondequoit schools, which is likely influenced by the high-need student populations served by many of the Rochester schools, with free/reduced lunch rates exceeding 80% in some cases. However, there does not appear to be a clear correlation between per-student spending and academic outcomes, suggesting that additional factors beyond funding may be at play. Overall, the schools in the 14609 zip code face substantial challenges in improving educational opportunities and outcomes for their students.
