Summary

Bloomingdale School is an elementary school located in Saranac Lake, New York, serving grades K-5 with a total enrollment of 98 students. It is part of the Saranac Lake Central School District, which is ranked 426 out of 874 school districts in New York and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bloomingdale School has shown strong performance in certain grade levels and subject areas on the New York State Assessments. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school had significantly higher proficiency rates than the Saranac Lake Central School District and the state average in 3rd grade English Language Arts (76.47% vs. 56.06% and 54.15%) and 3rd grade Math (82.35% vs. 65.15% and 59.7%). Additionally, Bloomingdale School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 10.1 to 10.6 over the past few years, which is lower than the nearby Petrova Elementary School (9.9) and L.P. Quinn Elementary School (8.9). However, the school's performance on the New York State Assessments has been somewhat inconsistent across grade levels and subject areas.

Compared to the nearby Petrova Elementary School, which is also part of the Saranac Lake Central School District, Bloomingdale School has shown both stronger and weaker performance on the New York State Assessments. Both schools have generally outperformed the more distant L.P. Quinn Elementary School, which is part of the Tupper Lake Central School District. The higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratio at Bloomingdale School may be contributing to its stronger performance in certain areas, while the higher percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients may be a factor in its weaker performance in other areas.
