Summary

Genesee Valley Central School is an alternative public school serving grades PK-12 in Belmont, New York, with 544 students as part of the Genesee Valley Central School District. The school has some notable strengths, including higher-than-average graduation rates ranging from 84.3% to 90.4% and lower dropout rates between 2.3% and 4.9% in recent years. However, Genesee Valley faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates between 17.6% and 34.1%, which may be impacting academic performance.

In terms of academic proficiency, Genesee Valley's students perform well on some measures, such as math proficiency rates ranging from 41.18% to 83.33%, with some grades exceeding the state average. But the school struggles in other areas, with ELA proficiency rates across grades 3-8 ranging from 25% to 68.97%, mostly below the state average, and science proficiency rates for 5th and 8th grade at 38.24% and 25%, both below the state average. The school's per-student spending, ranging from $16,575 to $31,173, is generally higher than nearby schools, which may be an effort to provide additional support for its relatively high proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with free/reduced lunch rates between 46.42% and 50.37%.

Compared to the nearby Whitesville Central School District, Hinsdale Central School District, and other surrounding districts, Genesee Valley generally performs on par or slightly better in most metrics, but there are opportunities to learn from the stronger performance of some neighboring schools, particularly in core academic areas like ELA and science. Overall, Genesee Valley Central School has some strengths, but also faces challenges that the district should continue to address to support student success.
