Summary

Morristown Central School is an alternative public school serving grades PK-12 in Morristown, NY, with 316 students. This school has consistently strong academic performance, outperforming state and district averages on New York state assessments and Regents exams across grade levels and subject areas.

Morristown Central School has a 4-year graduation rate around 85-90% and a dropout rate around 4-5%. However, the school faces a chronic absenteeism rate of 22-34%, an area it may want to focus on to ensure all students are consistently attending and engaged. The school spends significantly more per student, ranging from $15,000 to over $36,000 annually, which may contribute to its strong academic outcomes. Compared to the nearby alternative schools of Hermon-Dekalb, Lisbon, Heuvelton, and Hammond, Morristown Central School generally has higher test scores, graduation rates, and spending per student.

The school's high per-student spending combined with its large population of economically disadvantaged students, with 53-63% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in recent years, indicates Morristown Central School District is directing significant resources to support its student body. This investment appears to be paying off in the school's strong academic outcomes, which set it apart from many of the surrounding schools in the region.
