Summary

Fallsburg Junior Senior High School is a public high school serving grades 7-12 in Fallsburg, NY, part of the Fallsburg Central School District. With 688 students, the school faces significant challenges in academic performance, equity, and resource allocation.

Academically, Fallsburg Junior Senior High School consistently ranks in the bottom half of New York high schools, with low proficiency rates on state assessments and Regents exams compared to state averages. Graduation rates have fluctuated between 64.6% and 84.3%, lower than the state average, and dropout rates have ranged from 4.5% to 18.4%, higher than the state average.

While the school's per-student spending has increased significantly in recent years, from $16,001 in 2020-2021 to $43,050 in 2023-2024, the academic performance has not shown a corresponding improvement. Addressing the challenges at Fallsburg Junior Senior High School will require a comprehensive approach that goes beyond just increasing funding, focusing on targeted interventions, professional development for teachers, and a strong emphasis on equity and inclusion.

Open Quote Fallsburg is not a bad school as long as you are a good student. The media is only portraying the bad about the faculty, making the school seem horrid. This is not true there are only a select few faculty that are malicious. Most of the teachers are very supportive and try to help each student learn to the best of their ability. I graduated from this school not long ago and know that this is a good school unlike what the media is portraying it to be. Close Quote
