Summary

Unatego Junior-Senior High School is a public high school located in Otego, NY, serving 240 students in grades 9-12. As part of the Otego-Unadilla Central School District, the school consistently performs above the state average in Regents exam proficiency rates across various subjects, suggesting a strong academic foundation for its students.

The school has maintained a relatively high 4-year graduation rate, ranging from 76.3% to 90.6% over the past few years, which is generally on par with or above the state average. Additionally, the school's dropout rate has been low, ranging from 4.5% to 12.7%, indicating effective support for students to complete their high school education. Unatego Junior-Senior High School generally outperforms nearby schools like Oxford Academy High School, Norwich High School, and Afton Junior/Senior High School in terms of academic performance, graduation rates, and student-teacher ratios.

However, the school has experienced relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 20.6% to 34.1% over the past few years, which is a concern and may impact student learning and achievement. Addressing this issue could be a key priority for the school as it continues to strive for excellence and benchmark against top-performing nearby schools, such as Delaware Academy High School and Oneonta Senior High School.
