High Schools in Phelps-Clifton Springs Central School District


Summary:

The Phelps-Clifton Springs Central School District in New York has only one high school, Midlakes Middle/High School, which serves students in grades 6-12. The school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, dropping from 429th out of 1,228 New York high schools in 2022-2023 to 598th out of 1,234 in 2024-2025.

Midlakes Middle/High School's performance on state assessments and Regents exams is generally below the state and district averages, with the school struggling the most in Regents exams for Common Core Geometry and Living Environment. However, the school's strongest performance is in Regents exams for Common Core Algebra II and Physics, which are above the state averages. The school also has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students.

Despite the school's high per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratio, the data suggests that these resources may not be translating into improved academic outcomes. The school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5% is also a significant concern that may be contributing to its declining performance. Addressing these challenges will be crucial for improving student outcomes and ensuring the long-term success of Midlakes Middle/High School.
