Summary

Fairgrieve School is an elementary school located in Fulton, New York, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 425 students. The school is part of the Fulton City School District, which is ranked 792 out of 874 school districts in New York and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Fairgrieve School consistently performs below the state and district averages in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's ELA proficiency rates ranged from 16.28% to 23.21%, compared to the state average of 50.86% to 56.61%. Similarly, in Math, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 16.95% to 27.91%, compared to the state average of 51.2% to 59.7%. The school has been ranked among the lowest-performing elementary schools in New York, consistently ranking in the bottom 10% of schools statewide. Fairgrieve School's performance is particularly concerning for certain student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 5% of New York elementary schools for White students and Special Education students.

While the nearby schools within the Fulton City School District, such as Volney Elementary School and J.E. Lanigan School, also perform below the state averages in ELA and Math, they generally outperform Fairgrieve School. Fairgrieve School's spending per student has been relatively high, ranging from $14,265 to $28,386 over the past few years, but this increased spending does not appear to have translated into improved academic outcomes for the school.
