Summary:
The city of Monticello, New York is home to 4 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the schools in the Monticello Central School District have a diverse student population, they are collectively struggling to meet academic standards, with consistently low performance across all grade levels.
The standout schools in the district are Robert J Kaiser Middle School, which excels in Regents exam performance but lags in overall state assessment proficiency, and Monticello High School, which has relatively strong Regents exam results but a low 4-year graduation rate and high dropout rate. Across the district, the schools serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, with free and reduced lunch rates ranging from 62.68% to 81.1%.
The data suggests that the Monticello Central School District faces systemic challenges in providing quality education to its students. The consistently low performance across all grade levels, coupled with the high rates of economic disadvantage, indicate that the district may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address these issues and improve student outcomes at George L Cooke School, Kenneth L Rutherford School, and the other schools in the district.
