Summary:

The Clifton-Fine Central School District in New York serves students from two schools: Clifton-Fine Elementary School and Clifton-Fine Junior-Senior High School. While both schools have areas of strong performance, the data reveals some notable disparities in academic outcomes and resource allocation between the two schools.

The Clifton-Fine Junior-Senior High School stands out with a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 84.3% and strong performance on several Regents exams, including Chemistry, Common Core English Language Arts, and Geometry. Additionally, the school's 8th grade science proficiency rate of 60% is significantly higher than the state average.

Additionally, the junior-senior high school has a lower student-teacher ratio of 6.2, while the elementary school has a ratio of 11.1. These differences may contribute to the performance gaps observed between the two schools. Overall, the Clifton-Fine Central School District faces broader systemic challenges, as evidenced by its 2-star rating and ranking of 569 out of 874 districts in New York, suggesting the need for targeted interventions and a comprehensive approach to supporting student success across all grade levels.
