Summary:
The Manchester-Shortsville Central School District (Red Jacket) in New York has one middle school, Red Jacket Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. While the school has some areas of strength, such as high proficiency rates on certain Regents exams, its overall academic performance on state assessments is below the state average in many subjects and grade levels.
Red Jacket Middle School has 160 students enrolled, with a student-teacher ratio of 6.9. The school's spending per student is $29,158, which is higher than the state average. However, the school has a relatively high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at 64.38%, indicating a low-income student population. On state assessments, the school's proficiency rates vary significantly, with the 8th grade performing the best in English Language Arts (ELA) at 60%, while math and science proficiency rates are often below the state average.
While the school excels in certain Regents exams, such as 100% proficiency in Living Environment and 92.31% proficiency in Algebra I, its overall ranking within the state has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 903 out of 1,500 middle schools in 2024-2025 to 1,176 out of 1,504 in 2023-2024. This inconsistent academic performance suggests that the school could benefit from focusing on improving its math and science proficiency rates, which appear to be areas of weakness compared to the state average.
