Summary:

The Jamestown City School District in New York serves 9 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district as a whole is ranked 805 out of 874 school districts in the state and is rated 0 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Among the standout schools in the district, Thomas Jefferson Middle School and Persell Middle School perform relatively well, with higher state rankings and proficiency rates compared to other middle schools in the district. At the elementary level, Abraham Lincoln Elementary School stands out as the highest-performing, with significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math than the district and state averages.

However, the data reveals significant disparities in academic performance across the schools, with many of the elementary and middle schools struggling and performing well below state averages on standardized tests. The district also faces challenges with high dropout rates, chronic absenteeism, and a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. Addressing these issues and providing targeted interventions will be crucial for improving educational outcomes across the Jamestown City School District.
