High Schools in Wellsville Central School District

Summary:

The Wellsville Central School District in New York contains a single high school, Wellsville Secondary School, which serves grades 9-12. The school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking in recent years, dropping from 454th out of 1,228 New York high schools in 2022-2023 to 584th out of 1,234 in 2024-2025.

Wellsville Secondary School's academic performance is mixed, with proficiency rates on state assessments generally below the state average in English Language Arts and Math, but stronger performance on Regents exams, particularly in subjects like Common Core English Language Arts (85.57% proficient) and Common Core Algebra II (73.81% proficient). The school's four-year graduation rate of 84.3% is slightly below the state average, and its dropout rate of 4.5% is higher than the state average.

The school serves a relatively disadvantaged student population, with 41.96% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite this, the school spends $28,102 per student, which is higher than the state average. However, the declining performance and ranking suggest that the additional resources may not be translating into improved student outcomes, and further analysis would be needed to understand how the school is utilizing its funding and whether it is being allocated effectively.
