Summary:
Batavia Unified School District 101 has eight schools: six elementary schools, one middle school and one high school. Across the six elementary schools, average proficiency was above state results in 2025–2026: 67% in all-grades ELA versus 56% statewide, 63% in math versus 40%, and 63% in Grade 5 science versus 48%. The most important takeaway is that those averages conceal a wide science divide: elementary Grade 5 results ranged from 39% to 75%, with one school below the state result.
Elementary results have different leaders by subject. Alice Gustafson Elementary School led all-grades ELA at 77%, 20 points above the lowest result, at Hoover Wood Elementary School (57%). Grace McWayne Elementary School led all-grades math at 70%, while Hoover Wood was lowest at 58%. In Grade 5 science, H C Storm Elementary School led at 75%; Hoover Wood’s 39% was 9 points below the state. At the secondary level, Batavia Senior High School exceeded state Grade 11 ACT results by 17 to 22 points across subjects, and Sam Rotolo Middle School was 15 points above state in all-grades ELA and 20 points above in math.
Recent results are mixed: the elementary ELA average was essentially flat from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, while the math average fell 3 points. Individual changes varied, including a 12-point ELA increase at Alice Gustafson and a 9-point drop at Hoover Wood. Rotolo improved in all-grades ELA and math by 8 and 7 points, respectively; high school results also varied by grade and subject. SchoolDigger ranks Batavia Senior High 51 of 620 schools and Rotolo 208 of 1,126; elementary schools range from the 56th to 85th percentile. As context, all six elementary schools report free/reduced lunch eligible figures for 2024–2025, ranging from 10% at Grace McWayne to 25% at H C Storm; these figures do not line up in a simple way with school results. Elementary student-teacher ratios range from 13.4 to 16.5.
