Summary:
The Newark Central School District in New York contains a single high school, Newark Senior High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school faces some academic challenges, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger and a 4-year graduation rate below the state average.
Newark Senior High School's performance on select Regents exams, such as English Language Arts, Physics, and U.S. History and Government, is stronger than the state average, suggesting the school has particular strengths in these subject areas. However, the school's overall test scores are generally lower than the state averages, and it has a significantly higher chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5%, which could be a contributing factor to its lower academic performance.
The school serves a relatively low-income student population, with 54.86% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the district's higher-than-average per-student spending of $34,274, the school's academic outcomes have not yet reached the state average levels. This suggests that the district may need to explore additional strategies to address the unique challenges faced by the school and its student population.
