Portville Central School District

Summary:

The Portville Central School District is home to two schools - Portville Elementary School and Portville Junior-Senior High School. The district is ranked 158 out of 874 in New York, indicating it is a relatively high-performing district.

Portville Junior-Senior High School stands out as a particularly impressive school, consistently ranking among the top high schools in New York state with a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's Regents exam scores are significantly above state averages across a wide range of subjects, showcasing its academic excellence. In contrast, Portville Elementary School also performs well, with test scores above state averages in ELA and Math for grades 3-6.

Both schools in the district have relatively low student-teacher ratios, which may contribute to their strong academic performance. However, the district faces some challenges, such as a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, as indicated by the high free/reduced lunch rates at both schools. Additionally, chronic absenteeism at the high school level is an area of concern that the district may need to address.
