East Rochester Union Free School District

The East Rochester Union Free School District in New York consists of two schools: East Rochester Junior-Senior High School and East Rochester Elementary School. The district serves students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade and is ranked 543 out of 874 districts in New York, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Based on the data, East Rochester Junior-Senior High School appears to be the standout school in the district, with higher test scores than the district and state averages across many subject areas and grade levels. The school has a relatively high graduation rate of 84.3% and a lower dropout rate of 4.5%. In contrast, East Rochester Elementary School lags behind the district and state averages in most academic performance metrics, with its test scores generally lower than the high school and the overall district.

The data also reveals that both schools have similar per-student spending, around $28,500, and student-teacher ratios, with the high school at 9.6 and the elementary school at 10.3. However, the high school has a higher free/reduced lunch rate of 52.15%, compared to 45.88% at the elementary school. These findings suggest the need for a closer examination of curriculum alignment, instructional practices, and resource allocation across the grade levels to address the performance gap between the two schools within the East Rochester Union Free School District.
