Chateaugay Central School District

Summary:

The Chateaugay Central School District in New York operates two schools: Chateaugay Elementary School and Chateaugay High School. While the district serves students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade, the data reveals a significant performance gap between the two schools.

Chateaugay High School stands out as the stronger of the two, ranking 183 out of 1,234 high schools in New York and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school boasts a strong 84.3% four-year graduation rate, low 4.5% dropout rate, and impressive Regents exam proficiency rates that exceed the state average in subjects like Algebra II, Physics, and Geometry. In contrast, Chateaugay Elementary School lags behind, ranking 1,891 out of 2,445 elementary schools in the state and earning only a 1-star rating.

The data suggests that the higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratio at the high school may contribute to its stronger academic outcomes. However, both schools face challenges, with relatively high free/reduced lunch rates indicating a need to address socioeconomic factors and ensure equitable access to resources and opportunities for all students. While Chateaugay High School is a standout, the Chateaugay Central School District as a whole could benefit from a closer examination of the elementary school's performance and implementation of strategies to improve student outcomes at that level.
