Summary

Perry Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-6 in the Perry Central School District in Perry, NY. The school has 415 students and has been rated 2-3 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger over the past several years, placing it in the middle range compared to other New York elementary schools.

Perry Elementary School has struggled with academic performance compared to the state average. In the 2024-2025 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in ELA ranged from 37.5% to 55.56% across grades 3-6, which is below the New York state average of 50.86% to 54.15%. In math, the proficiency rates ranged from 45.24% to 61.9%, also below the state average of 51.2% to 59.7%. The school's science proficiency for 5th grade was 36.54%, compared to the state average of 45.02%. When compared to other nearby elementary schools, such as Wolcott Street School and Letchworth Elementary School, Perry Elementary School generally performs in the middle to lower range.

Perry Elementary School's performance has fluctuated over the years, with the school's ranking and star rating varying from 1 to 3 stars. This suggests that the school may be facing challenges in maintaining consistent academic achievement. Additionally, the school's free and reduced-price lunch rate has ranged from 39.04% to 47.64% over the past few years, indicating a significant population of students from low-income families. This may be a contributing factor to the school's academic challenges, and addressing the socioeconomic factors impacting student learning could be a key focus area for the school and district.
