Summary:
The Port Byron Central School District consists of two schools: A A Gates Elementary School and Port Byron Senior High School. The district serves a population with significant economic challenges, as evidenced by the relatively high free/reduced lunch rates at both schools.
A A Gates Elementary School stands out for its relatively high proficiency rates in 5th grade English Language Arts and Math, which are above the district and state averages. The school has also seen improvements in its academic performance over the past two years, with proficiency rates increasing across most grade levels. However, the school's spending per student, at $27,186, is above the district average.
Port Byron Senior High School has a strong performance on Regents exams, with high proficiency rates in subjects like Chemistry, Geometry, and Earth and Space Sciences. The school also has a solid four-year graduation rate of 84.3%, which is above the state average, and a lower chronic absenteeism rate compared to the state average. While the school's performance on state assessments is mixed, with some subject areas exceeding the district and state averages and others falling behind, the overall data suggests that the school is providing a quality education to its students.
