Summary

Stephen And Harriet Myers Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in the Albany City School District, with 573 students. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of New York middle schools over the past 10 years, with a ranking between 1079 and 1418 out of around 1500 middle schools.

The school's academic performance is a significant concern, with proficiency rates ranging from 3.67% to 39.29% across different grade levels and subjects, far below the New York state averages of 43.5% to 56.47%. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 10% of New York middle schools for African American, Hispanic, Special Education, and Low Socioeconomic Status students. Additionally, the school has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 69.63% to 73.79% over the past few years, much higher than the state average.

When comparing Stephen And Harriet Myers Middle School to other middle schools in the area, such as North Albany Academy Middle School, William S Hackett Middle School, and Bethlehem Central Middle School, it becomes clear that the school is an outlier in terms of academic performance, consistently underperforming its peers. While the school's high concentration of economically disadvantaged students and significant increase in spending per student suggest unique challenges, the data also indicates potential opportunities for improvement, such as the school's relatively stronger performance on Regents exams.
