Summary:

The Saugerties Central School District in New York consists of 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. The district's schools show a mix of academic performance, with Saugerties Senior High School standing out as the top-performing school in the district, consistently exceeding state averages on Regents exams and maintaining a strong graduation rate of 84.3%.

Among the elementary schools, Morse School appears to be the strongest performer, outpacing the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Math proficiency for most grade levels. In contrast, the other two elementary schools, Riccardi Elementary and Cahill School, show more mixed results on state assessments. The Saugerties Junior High School also lags behind the high school in academic performance, particularly in English Language Arts.

The district's schools vary in their spending per student, ranging from $27,902 at Riccardi Elementary to $32,861 at Morse School. This disparity in resource allocation may be an area for the district to examine, ensuring equitable access to educational resources across all schools. Additionally, the high school's relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5% could be a concern that warrants further investigation and targeted interventions to improve student engagement and academic outcomes.
