Summary:
The Gates Chili Central School District in New York serves students from elementary through high school, with 6 schools in the district including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district's performance is generally below the state average, but there are some standout schools that demonstrate stronger academic achievement.
Gates Chili High School stands out with relatively high performance on Regents exams, particularly in Common Core English Language Arts and U.S. History and Government. The school also has a graduation rate above the district average. In contrast, the high school lags behind in subjects like Algebra II and Earth Science. Meanwhile, Florence Brasser School, an elementary school, demonstrates strong performance on state assessments in 4th grade English Language Arts and Math, with a lower free/reduced lunch rate compared to other elementary schools in the district.
The district faces some challenges, including uneven performance across grade levels, with the high school generally outperforming the middle school, which in turn outperforms the elementary schools. Addressing attendance issues, particularly the high chronic absenteeism rate at the high school, and implementing targeted strategies to support students from disadvantaged backgrounds could be key focus areas for the district to improve overall student outcomes.
