Summary:

The city of Niagara Falls, New York is home to 13 schools, including 10 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school, all part of the Niagara Falls City School District, except for Colonial Village Elementary School which is part of the Niagara-Wheatfield Central School District, and Niagara Charter School which is a public charter school.

Within this group, a few schools stand out. Niagara Charter School significantly outperforms the other schools, with the highest proficiency rates on state assessments for English Language Arts and Math across all grade levels. Geraldine J Mann School and Seventy Ninth Street School, both elementary schools within the Niagara Falls City School District, also have stronger academic performance than many of their peers.

However, the Niagara Falls City School District as a whole is performing poorly, ranking 821 out of 874 districts in New York state and receiving a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. This is reflected in the low test scores and academic performance across most of the district's schools. The high rates of poverty, as measured by free/reduced lunch eligibility, are likely a major contributing factor to the academic struggles of many of these schools, suggesting the need to address underlying socioeconomic challenges to improve student outcomes.
