Summary:

The Port Chester-Rye Union Free School District consists of 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district as a whole is ranked 730 out of 874 in New York and is rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger, indicating significant challenges in student performance.

Within the district, a few schools stand out. Park Avenue School is the top-performing elementary school, with significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science compared to the district average. Meanwhile, Port Chester Middle School excels in Regents exam performance, with 100% proficiency in Living Environment and Algebra I. However, the district's high school, Port Chester Senior High School, struggles with a below-average graduation rate and high dropout and chronic absenteeism rates.

The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance across the district's schools, with some elementary schools performing much worse than others on state assessments. This is likely exacerbated by the high poverty levels, as all schools have a majority of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. While per-student spending varies, it is unclear if this translates to better outcomes. Overall, the Port Chester-Rye Union Free School District faces significant challenges in improving student achievement and addressing the inequities within the system.
