Summary:

The Herkimer Central School District in New York operates two schools - Herkimer High School and Herkimer Elementary School. The district as a whole is ranked 703 out of 874 in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating there is room for improvement across the district.

Herkimer High School has a mixed performance, with some strong results on certain Regents exams but overall lower proficiency rates compared to the state average. The school has a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 84.3% but struggles with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5%. In contrast, Herkimer Elementary School performs significantly worse, with very low proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math across grades 3-5 compared to the state.

Both schools have high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage in the district. The district's challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students, particularly at the elementary school level, will need to be addressed to improve student outcomes.
