Summary:

The Phelps-Clifton Springs Central School District in New York operates two schools: Midlakes Elementary School and Midlakes Middle/High School. The district as a whole is ranked 639 out of 874 in New York, indicating room for improvement across both schools.

Of the two schools, Midlakes Middle/High School appears to be the stronger performer. It has a higher statewide ranking (598 out of 1234 high schools) compared to Midlakes Elementary (1913 out of 2445 elementary schools), and higher proficiency rates on Regents exams across multiple subjects. In contrast, Midlakes Elementary School struggles academically, with proficiency rates below the state average on most 3rd-6th grade New York State Assessments in English Language Arts and Math, and an overall SchoolDigger rating of only 1 out of 5 stars.

While Midlakes Middle/High School maintains respectable academic standing, the high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5% is concerning and may be contributing to lower performance compared to state averages. Additionally, the relatively high spending per student ($26,762 - $29,094) at both schools does not seem to be translating into stronger academic outcomes, especially at the elementary level, suggesting potential opportunities to evaluate resource allocation and instructional practices.
