Summary

Tioga Middle School is a public middle school located in Tioga Center, New York, serving 273 students in grades 5-8 as part of the Tioga Central School District. This high-performing school has consistently demonstrated strong academic achievement, particularly in core subject areas and Regents exams.

Tioga Middle School's academic performance is impressive, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math that significantly exceed state averages, especially in 7th grade Math (92.31% vs. 56.47%) and 8th grade ELA (58.67% vs. 52.38%). The school has also excelled in Regents exams, with 100% proficiency rates in Algebra I and Earth and Space Sciences in 2024-2025, outperforming the state. This success may be attributed to the school's relatively high per-student spending of $22,686 and low student-teacher ratio of 10.7, which likely contribute to its strong educational outcomes.

While Tioga Middle School has shown strong performance for female students, the school's performance for special education students has been a concern, with their Math proficiency ranking in the bottom 15% of New York middle schools in 2024-2025. This highlights the need for the school to focus on improving educational outcomes for this student population. Nonetheless, Tioga Middle School's consistent 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and its geographic isolation from other high-performing schools in the area suggest that the school has effective strategies in place to support student success, even with a significant population of low-socioeconomic status students.
