Summary

Oneida Senior High School is a public high school serving 520 students in grades 9-12 in Oneida, New York, which is part of the Oneida City School District. The school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, dropping from 496 out of 1,228 New York high schools in 2022-2023 to 629 out of 1,234 in 2024-2025. Its SchoolDigger rating has also fluctuated between 2 and 3 stars out of 5 over the past decade.

Oneida Senior High School's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups. For example, Hispanic students have ranked as high as 149 out of 865 New York high schools, while the school's performance for low socioeconomic status students is particularly concerning, ranking as low as 898 out of 1,179. The school's four-year graduation rate, ranging from 82.3% to 87.3%, is slightly below the state average, and its dropout rate has fluctuated between 4.5% and 9.4%. Additionally, Oneida Senior High School has a high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 31.5% to 35.8%, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Compared to nearby high-performing schools like Oriskany Junior-Senior High School, Fayetteville-Manlius Senior High School, and Clinton Senior High School, Oneida Senior High School's academic performance is generally lower. However, the school does perform better than some nearby schools, such as Rome Free Academy and Canastota High School. The high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at Oneida Senior High School (39.04% in 2023-2024) suggests that the school serves a relatively disadvantaged student population, which may contribute to its lower academic performance compared to more affluent nearby schools.
