Summary:

The Harrison Central School District in New York is home to six schools, including three elementary schools, one middle school, one high school, and one alternative school. The district is known for its strong academic performance, with several standout schools that consistently rank among the top in the state.

At the top of the district is Harrison High School, which ranks among the top 73 high schools in New York and earns a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. This high-performing school boasts exceptional test scores, with over 90% proficiency in several Regents exams, and a high 4-year graduation rate of 84.3%. The district's elementary schools also shine, with Harrison Avenue Elementary School and Purchase School ranking among the top 212 and 236 elementary schools in the state, respectively, and earning 5-star ratings.

While the district's schools generally perform well above the state average on standardized tests and have relatively low student-teacher ratios, there is some variation in performance across the elementary schools. Parsons Memorial School and Samuel J Preston School lag behind their peers in test scores and rankings. Additionally, the significant differences in free/reduced lunch rates across the schools suggest potential equity concerns that the district may want to address to ensure all students have access to a high-quality education.
