Summary

Chenango Forks Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in the Chenango Forks Central School District, located in Binghamton, NY. With 277 students, the school generally performs better than the state average on New York State Assessments, particularly in math, where 64.38% of 7th graders were proficient or better in 2024-2025, compared to the state average of 56.47%. The school also had 100% proficiency rates on the Regents Algebra I and Earth Science exams, significantly outperforming the state.

However, the school struggles with its special education and low socioeconomic status student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 25% of New York middle schools. Chenango Forks Middle School has seen a significant increase in spending per student, from $12,001 in 2020-2021 to $26,018 in 2023-2024, which is higher than the state average and many of the nearby schools, including Jennie F Snapp Middle School, Vestal Middle School, and Chenango Valley Middle School. The school also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.9 in 2023-2024, which is lower than most of the nearby schools.

Overall, Chenango Forks Middle School appears to be a relatively strong-performing school, with particular strengths in math and Regents exam performance. However, the school faces some challenges in supporting its special education and low-income student populations, which will be important areas of focus going forward. The school's consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years indicates stable academic performance, and its proximity to other middle schools provides an opportunity for collaboration and benchmarking.
