Dalton-Nunda Central School District (Keshequa)

Summary:

The Dalton-Nunda Central School District (Keshequa) in New York operates three schools: Dalton-Nunda Elementary School, Dalton-Nunda Secondary School (High School), and Dalton-Nunda Middle School. The district serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 40.91% to 43.95% across the three schools.

Among the standout schools, the Dalton-Nunda Secondary School (High School) has shown improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from 635th out of 1,242 New York high schools in 2023-2024 to 542nd out of 1,234 in 2024-2025, with a 3-star rating. The high school also has a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 84.3% and a low dropout rate of 4.5%, outperforming the district and state averages in several Regents exam subjects. In contrast, the Dalton-Nunda Middle School has seen a significant decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 469th out of 1,407 in 2014-2015 to 983rd out of 1,500 in 2024-2025, despite maintaining a 2-star rating.

While the high school outperforms the state on several Regents exams, the Dalton-Nunda Elementary School and Dalton-Nunda Middle School consistently underperform the state averages on the New York State Assessments. This suggests a potential disconnect between the academic preparation and performance of students as they progress through the district's schools. The district's relatively low student-teacher ratios and higher-than-average spending per student indicate that resources are being allocated effectively, but the academic performance data suggests that these resources may not be translating into consistent, high-quality educational outcomes across all grade levels.
