Summary:

The Akron Central School District in New York serves students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade across three schools: Akron Elementary School, Akron High School, and Akron Middle School. The district has demonstrated a strong focus on academic excellence, with its elementary and middle schools consistently outperforming state averages on standardized assessments.

Akron Elementary School and Akron Middle School have both maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past three school years, indicating their exceptional academic performance. These schools have shown impressive proficiency rates on state assessments, with students scoring well above the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics. Notably, Akron Middle School had an exceptional 88.41% proficiency rate in 8th grade Mathematics, far surpassing the state average of 46.74%.

In contrast, Akron High School has experienced a decline in its ranking, dropping from 147th in 2022-2023 to 216th in 2023-2024 and 377th in 2024-2025. The high school also has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5%, which could be a contributing factor to its declining performance. However, the district's commitment to equitable resource allocation, as evidenced by similar spending per student and student-teacher ratios across the schools, suggests a focus on providing quality education for all students.
