Summary

Ogdensburg Free Academy is a public high school serving grades 7-12 in Ogdensburg, New York, with a total enrollment of 675 students. The school consistently ranks among the top 30% of New York high schools, maintaining a 4 or 5-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past decade.

Ogdensburg Free Academy stands out for its strong academic performance, with students consistently outperforming state and district averages on Regents exams and state assessments. The school also boasts high graduation rates around 80-84%, which are on par with or exceed the state average, and relatively low dropout rates ranging from 4.5% to 7.2% in recent years. Additionally, the school's performance is strong across different student subgroups, including females, males, white students, special education students, and economically disadvantaged students, many of whom rank in the top 20-30% of their peers statewide.

While Ogdensburg City School District is ranked 374 out of 874 districts in the state, the nearby Madrid-Waddington Central School District and Canton Central School District also have high-performing schools, but none quite match the level of Ogdensburg Free Academy on many metrics. The school's ability to achieve such strong academic outcomes despite serving a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students is particularly noteworthy.
