Summary

Sherburne-Earlville Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in Sherburne, New York, with 294 students. The school is part of the Sherburne-Earlville Central School District, which is ranked 592 out of 874 school districts in New York and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Sherburne-Earlville Middle School has some areas of strength, such as relatively high 6th grade ELA proficiency rates, the school faces several challenges. Its overall test scores are generally lower than state averages, and its performance varies significantly across different student subgroups. The school's statewide ranking has also declined over the years, suggesting it is struggling to keep pace with other middle schools in the state. Compared to nearby schools like Oxford Academy Middle School and Norwich Middle School, Sherburne-Earlville Middle School generally performs worse on state assessments.

One potential factor contributing to the school's challenges is the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 45.86% to 64.88% over the past few years. This suggests a relatively high proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, which can impact academic performance. However, the school does have a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher spending per student, which may indicate a focus on providing more individualized support for students.
