Elementary Schools in Highland Falls Central School District

Summary:

The Highland Falls Central School District has only one elementary school, Fort Montgomery Elementary School, which serves grades PK-2 with a total enrollment of 203 students. The district is ranked 413 out of 874 school districts in New York and is rated 3 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Fort Montgomery Elementary School stands out for its high spending per student, at $33,667, which is significantly above the national average for elementary schools. Additionally, the school has a low student-teacher ratio of 10.8, suggesting a strong emphasis on individualized attention. However, with only one elementary school in the data set, there are no clear comparisons to be made against other standout schools in the district.

Interestingly, 40.39% of students at Fort Montgomery Elementary School are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a diverse socioeconomic population. This high percentage of students from low-income families could be a factor in the school's high spending per student and low student-teacher ratio, as the district may be focusing resources on supporting these students. Overall, the data provides a detailed look at the characteristics of Fort Montgomery Elementary School, but additional information on other schools in the district would be needed to conduct a more comprehensive analysis of the area's elementary education landscape.
