Best Public Schools in Macedon, NY

Summary:

The city of Macedon, New York has only one school serving grades 3-5 - the Palmyra-Macedon Intermediate School, which is part of the Palmyra-Macedon Central School District. This district is ranked 652 out of 874 school districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The Palmyra-Macedon Intermediate School has consistently underperformed on New York State Assessments in English Language Arts, Math, and Science compared to the state average over the past two school years. In 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 30.48% to 52.48% in ELA, 32.71% to 57.43% in Math, and 31.48% in 5th-grade Science, all below the state averages. Additionally, nearly half (47.01%) of the school's students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic challenges faced by the student population.

Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $28,988 and a student-teacher ratio of 11.1 to 1, the academic performance data suggests that these resources have not translated into improved student outcomes. The school's persistent academic struggles across multiple grade levels and subject areas suggest a need for targeted interventions and strategies to address the underlying factors contributing to the low performance, such as teaching practices, curriculum, and support for students from disadvantaged backgrounds.
