Summary

East Middle School is a public middle school located in Binghamton, New York, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 465 students. The school is part of the Binghamton City School District, which is ranked 782 out of 874 school districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 7.9 and a high per-student spending of $32,202, East Middle School consistently ranks in the bottom 10-15% of middle schools in New York state based on the SchoolDigger statewide ranking. For the 2024-2025 school year, the school ranked 1358 out of 1500 middle schools, with a 0-star rating. This poor academic performance is reflected in the school's test scores, which are significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas.

When compared to other nearby middle schools, such as Greene Middle School, Tioughnioga Riverside Academy, and Jennie F Snapp Middle School, East Middle School generally performs worse academically, despite having a lower student-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending. This suggests that factors beyond just resource allocation and class size may be contributing to the school's poor academic outcomes, such as the high percentage of students from low-income families, which stands at 79.14% in the 2023-2024 school year.
