Falconer Central School District

Summary:

The Falconer Central School District in New York consists of 3 schools: 2 elementary schools (Paul B D Temple Elementary School and Harvey C Fenner Elementary School) and 1 middle/high school (Falconer Middle/High School). The data reveals some standout schools and key metrics that provide insights into the district's performance.

Falconer Middle/High School stands out with its high enrollment of 629 students and strong performance on Regents exams, exceeding the state average in subjects like Chemistry, Algebra II, and Earth Science. However, the school lags behind the state average on the NY State Assessments for English Language Arts and Math in grades 6-8. In contrast, Harvey C Fenner Elementary School has the highest proficiency rates on the NY State Assessments among the 3 schools, particularly in 3rd grade Math and 5th grade Science.

The district faces some challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5% at Falconer Middle/High School and significant socioeconomic factors, as evidenced by the high percentages of students receiving free/reduced lunch at the elementary schools. Addressing these disparities and leveraging the strengths of individual schools could help the district improve educational outcomes for all students.
