Summary:

The city of Geneseo, New York is home to two schools: Geneseo Middle School High School and Geneseo Elementary School, both part of the Geneseo Central School District. Based on the available data, Geneseo Middle School High School appears to be the stronger performing institution, with higher statewide rankings, better test scores, and stronger graduation rates compared to the elementary school.

Geneseo Middle School High School has a four-year graduation rate of 84.3% and a dropout rate of 4.5% in the 2023-2024 school year. The school also outperforms the state average on many New York State Assessments and Regents exams, particularly in math, Algebra II, Geometry, and English Language Arts. In contrast, Geneseo Elementary School scored below the state average on most 3rd-5th grade New York State Assessments in English Language Arts and Math.

Despite the elementary school having higher per-student spending of $55,739 compared to $49,284 at the middle/high school, it is underperforming academically. This suggests that simply spending more money may not be the sole solution to improving student outcomes. Additionally, the lower student-teacher ratio of 8.6 at the middle/high school could be a contributing factor to its stronger academic performance compared to the elementary school's ratio of 9.5.
