Summary

Scotia-Glenville Middle School in Scotia, NY, serves 489 students in grades 6-8 within the Scotia-Glenville Central School District, and is a solid, mid-sized suburban school that has earned a 4-star rating and ranks in the 74th percentile statewide for the 2024-2025 school year.

This school stands out for its exceptional advanced coursework program. An impressive 100% of 8th graders who took high school-level Regents exams in Algebra I and Earth and Space Sciences were proficient, and 94.12% were proficient in Biology. This far exceeds district and state averages, showing a strong acceleration track for advanced learners. Overall, the school consistently outperforms state averages in math, ELA, and science across all grade levels, placing it well above nearby schools like Draper Middle School and Schalmont Middle School, which struggle to meet those benchmarks. While it trails top-tier suburban schools like Koda Middle School and Iroquois Middle School, it offers a clear step up from the Schenectady City schools (Central Park, Mont Pleasant, Oneida), which rank in the bottom third of the state.

Another key strength is the school's upward trajectory. Its overall state ranking has risen from the 67th to the 74th percentile over the past three years, and it has shown significant improvement in serving Hispanic and low socioeconomic status students, with those subgroups jumping to 4-star and 3-star ratings, respectively. However, a notable weakness is its performance with special education students, who remain at a 2-star rating. With a student-teacher ratio of 10.3:1 and per-pupil spending of $27,302—higher than many top-performing neighbors—the school appears to invest heavily in specialized programs, though this area still needs targeted attention to ensure all students thrive.
