Summary

Syracuse Latin School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in the Syracuse City School District, with 644 students. The school has consistently ranked in the top half of New York elementary schools, earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Syracuse Latin School significantly outperforms the Syracuse City School District and the state of New York in academic proficiency across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 60.32% of 3rd graders at Syracuse Latin School were proficient in ELA, compared to 26.82% in the district and 54.15% statewide. The school's performance is particularly strong for certain student subgroups, such as white students and special education students, who perform notably better than their peers in the district and state.

While Syracuse Latin School maintains a strong academic performance, its statewide ranking has declined over time, suggesting it may be losing ground relative to other high-performing schools. When compared to nearby schools, such as Seymour Dual Language Academy and Roberts K-8 School, Syracuse Latin School stands out as a top performer. However, the school's performance is still outpaced by Tecumseh Elementary School in the higher-performing Jamesville-Dewitt Central School District, highlighting the disparities in educational outcomes between urban and suburban school districts.
