Summary:

The Schodack Central School District in New York operates two schools: Castleton Elementary School and Maple Hill Junior/Senior High School. Both schools demonstrate strong academic performance, with Maple Hill Junior/Senior High School ranking in the top 20% of New York high schools and Castleton Elementary School consistently earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Maple Hill Junior/Senior High School stands out for its exceptional Regents exam performance, with over 80% proficiency in subjects like Chemistry, Algebra II, English Language Arts, Global History, and U.S. History. The school also boasts a high graduation rate of 84.3% and a relatively low dropout rate of 4.5%. In contrast, Castleton Elementary School shines in its strong performance on New York State Assessments, with several grade levels exceeding the state average in both English Language Arts and Math, particularly in 5th and 6th grade.

Both schools benefit from the district's significant investment in education, with spending per student well above the state average and low student-teacher ratios, especially at Maple Hill Junior/Senior High School. However, the relatively low free/reduced lunch rates at both schools suggest the district may be serving a more affluent population, which could impact the availability of resources and educational outcomes for students from lower-income families. Overall, the Schodack Central School District appears to be a high-performing district, delivering quality education to its students.
