Summary:
The Mexico Central School District in New York consists of 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district serves a population with a significant proportion of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 46.9% at Mexico Elementary to 53.74% at Palermo Elementary.
Among the schools, Mexico High School stands out as the top performer, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and a 84.3% four-year graduation rate, which is above the district and state averages. The high school also performs well on Regents exams, with several subject areas exceeding 70% proficiency. In contrast, the elementary and middle schools generally perform below the district and state averages on state assessments in both English Language Arts and Math.
The data reveals a significant disparity in performance between the high school and the lower-grade schools within the district. While Mexico High School is performing relatively well, the elementary and middle schools are struggling, with most falling in the bottom quartile of their respective school types in the state. This suggests that the district may face challenges in addressing the low proficiency rates on state assessments, particularly in English Language Arts and Math, and in providing equitable educational opportunities across all grade levels.
