Summary

Beekmantown High School is a public high school located in West Chazy, New York, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 577. As part of the Beekmantown Central School District, the school consistently performs well on Regents exams, with high proficiency rates across various subjects, such as 98.57% in Regents Chemistry, 91.01% in Regents Common Core Algebra II, and 88.64% in Regents Common Core English Language Arts.

Beekmantown High School maintains a strong four-year graduation rate, ranging from 84.3% to 90.5% over the past few years, and a relatively low dropout rate of 3.2% to 6.5%. The school has consistently ranked in the top 30% of New York high schools, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, placing it among the top-performing high schools in the state. When compared to nearby high schools, such as Northern Adirondack Middle/High School, Saranac High School, Peru High School, and Chazy Central Rural Junior-Senior High School, Beekmantown High School generally outperforms these schools in terms of academic proficiency, graduation rates, and overall school rankings.

While Beekmantown High School faces some challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 23.4% to 34.1% in recent years, the school's strong academic foundation and dedicated resources, including a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.2 to 11.5, make it a desirable educational option for students in the local area. The school's increased spending per student, from $11,286 in 2020-2021 to $18,497 in 2023-2024, may have also contributed to its academic success.

What people are saying

Tuesday, October 8, 2019

Our cafeteria food is atrocious. The lunch ladies have tried to steal my money by saying my account was 'overdue for payment' even though we are given free food. The disciplinary administrator is unreasonable and hot-headed. The teachers always try to snake their way into our personal life, and commonly intrude on our conversations and/or personal business. Many teachers are incapable of teaching and mostly refuse to help students with work. It's not all bad however, many teachers do leave a positive impact on their students. Close Quote

We have been in the district for 3 years (2009-2012). Our daughter is an advanced placement student, an active sports participant and involved in various school clubs & activities.

We are leaving the district after this school year. We have found the district to be very unsatisfactory. There is a huge lack of communication/organization. Financial problems have plagued the district for years, and seems to be continually getting worse!

A recent announcement released to the local press (pressrepublican.com) has detailed the districts intention to discontinue all music and art classes as well as all athletic programs, and 40 faculty positions.

My heart goes out to the students that aren't able to move as we are. :( Close Quote
