Summary:

The city of South Glens Falls, New York is home to 5 schools that are part of the South Glens Falls Central School District. The district serves students from elementary through high school, with 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school.

Among the schools, Oliver W Winch Middle School stands out with its strong test scores, including 100% proficiency rates in Regents Living Environment and Algebra I exams. However, the school's statewide ranking has declined in recent years, from 689 out of 1500 middle schools in 2022-2023 to 1021 out of 1500 in 2024-2025. Meanwhile, South Glens Falls Senior High School has a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 84.3% and a low dropout rate of 4.5%, along with strong Regents exam performance.

The elementary schools in the district show more variation in their performance, with Tanglewood Elementary School performing significantly better than Moreau Elementary School and Harrison Avenue Elementary School. Additionally, the district as a whole faces challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates at the high school and significant disparities in spending per student across the schools.
