Summary

Madrid-Waddington Junior-Senior High School is a public school serving 314 students in grades 6-12 in the Madrid-Waddington Central School District located in Madrid, NY. The school has consistently ranked in the top 20-25% of New York high schools over the past decade, with a current ranking of 204 out of 1,234 high schools in the state and a 4 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger.

Madrid-Waddington's students consistently outperform the state average on Regents exams across a variety of subjects, including Common Core Algebra II (90.91% proficient vs. 74.88% statewide), Common Core English Language Arts (90.48% vs. 75.29%), and Living Environment (83.93% vs. 56.7%). The school also stands out for its high performance among students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, ranking 61 out of 1,179 New York high schools for this subgroup and earning a 5-star rating. However, the school's 1-star rating for special education students in 2018-2019 indicates a need to further support these learners.

When compared to nearby high schools like Ogdensburg Free Academy, H.C. Williams Senior High, and Potsdam Senior High, Madrid-Waddington performs well academically but lags behind some of its neighbors in certain Regents exam proficiency rates. Additionally, the school's female students outperform their male counterparts in the school's statewide rankings, suggesting the need to further support and challenge male students to close this gap.
