Mount Markham Central School District

Summary:

The Mount Markham Central School District in New York operates three schools: Mount Markham Elementary School, Mount Markham Senior High School, and Mount Markham Middle School. The data reveals a mixed performance across the district, with the high school standing out as a strong performer while the middle and elementary schools face some challenges.

Mount Markham Senior High School is the district's top performer, ranking 361 out of 1,234 New York high schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school excels in Regents exams, with several subjects achieving over 80% proficiency rates. Additionally, it maintains a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 84.3%. In contrast, Mount Markham Middle School and Mount Markham Elementary School have struggled to meet state proficiency standards, with the middle school's performance lagging behind the district and state averages in many subjects and grades.

The data also reveals some potential equity concerns within the district. While Mount Markham Senior High School had a lower percentage of free/reduced-price lunch recipients (48.53%), the middle school had a higher rate (54.64%), suggesting socioeconomic disparities. Additionally, the elementary school's SchoolDigger rating declined from 3 stars to 2 stars over the past few years, indicating areas for improvement. The high school also faces a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5%, which the district may need to address.
