Summary

Vernon-Verona-Sherrill Senior High School is a public high school serving 594 students in grades 9-12 in Verona, New York. The school is part of the Sherrill City School District, which is ranked 400 out of 874 school districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite not being a top-tier school, Vernon-Verona-Sherrill Senior High School has maintained a steady, above-average performance over the past decade, ranking in the top third of New York high schools. The school's consistent ranking and resource allocation, with per-student spending above the state average, suggest it is providing a quality education. However, the school's data reveals achievement gaps for certain student subgroups, particularly white students and special education students, which should be a priority for improvement. Additionally, the school's high chronic absenteeism rates, significantly higher than state averages, are likely a contributing factor to its mixed academic performance in subjects like Chemistry and Algebra I.

When compared to nearby high schools, Vernon-Verona-Sherrill Senior High School generally performs in the middle of the pack. Schools like New Hartford Senior High and Clinton Senior High School outperform it, while others like Waterville Junior/Senior High and Rome Free Academy lag behind. This provides useful context for understanding the school's relative strengths and weaknesses.

I endured some very inaccurate teachings while I was a student at VVS. The tried to teach me that The Civil War had nothing to do with slavery (that's racially insensitive and not true). I also had to attend an abstinence based sex program that wasn't scientifically accurate. Close Quote
