Summary

Rondout Valley Junior High School is a public middle school serving grades 7-8 in Accord, New York, with an enrollment of 269 students. While the school has received 1-2 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger in recent years, indicating below-average performance compared to other New York middle schools, it has some notable strengths and areas for improvement.

Academically, Rondout Valley Junior High School consistently underperforms the state average in proficiency rates for the 7th and 8th grade New York State Assessments in English Language Arts and Math. However, the school stands out for its strong performance on Regents exams, with 100% proficiency rates in Living Environment and Algebra I in recent years, significantly outpacing the district and state averages. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with multi-racial students performing relatively well, while African American and special education students rank near the bottom of the state.

Compared to nearby middle schools, such as John G Borden Middle School and Onteora Middle School, Rondout Valley Junior High School's performance is generally lower, with these schools having higher state rankings and better test scores. The school's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, ranging from 37.92% to 42.16% in recent years, may contribute to its lower academic performance, as research has shown that socioeconomic status can be a significant factor in student achievement. Additionally, the school's state ranking has steadily declined over the past several years, from 621 out of 1,455 New York middle schools in 2016-2017 to 1,024 out of 1,500 in 2024-2025, indicating a need for improvement.
