Despite the district's apparent investment in the school, with per-student spending of $27,397 and a low student-teacher ratio of 7.3 to 1, Silver Creek Middle School is ranked 1162 out of 1500 New York middle schools and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 56.42%, may be a contributing factor to its academic challenges. Further examination of the school's instructional practices and support for struggling students could help identify opportunities for improvement.
