Summary:
Hilton Central School District has only one middle school, Merton Williams Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, ranking between 673 and 892 out of over 1,500 schools statewide. While the school excels in Math and Regents exams, with proficiency rates exceeding the state average, its English Language Arts (ELA) performance lags behind the state average.
Merton Williams Middle School has a student population of 612 and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.2. The school's per-student spending of $23,622 is higher than the state average, suggesting a well-resourced educational environment. However, the school's free and reduced-price lunch rate of 33.99% indicates that a significant portion of the student population comes from lower-income households, which may present unique challenges and require targeted support.
Overall, Hilton Central School District has a single middle school that demonstrates strengths in certain subject areas, such as Math and Regents exams, but also faces opportunities for improvement in ELA. The school's fluctuating statewide ranking and its socioeconomic factors suggest the need for further investigation to understand the factors influencing its academic outcomes.
