Summary
Durhamville School is an elementary school serving grades 4-5 in the Oneida City School District in New York, with 223 students enrolled. While the school's performance has been relatively consistent over the past several years, it faces several key challenges, including lower test scores, particularly for certain student subgroups, higher free/reduced lunch rates, and lower performance compared to nearby schools.
Durhamville School's test scores are generally lower than the state and district averages across all subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 30.95% of 4th graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 54.07% statewide. Similarly, in math, 48% of 4th graders were proficient, compared to 58.64% statewide. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as female students, male students, special education students, and low socioeconomic status students, ranking in the bottom 15% of New York elementary schools for these groups.
Compared to nearby schools in the Oneida City School District, such as W F Prior Elementary and Seneca Street School, Durhamville School's performance is generally lower, with higher test scores, higher rankings, and lower free/reduced lunch rates. Despite the increase in spending per student at Durhamville School, from $11,329 in 2019-2020 to $16,461 in 2022-2023, the school's academic performance has remained relatively low, suggesting that simply increasing funding may not be enough to improve outcomes.
