Summary

Whitesville Central School is an alternative public school serving grades K-12 in Whitesville, New York, with 129 students. The school is part of the Whitesville Central School District.

Whitesville Central School has faced some challenges in recent years. Its test scores on the New York State Assessments are generally below the state average, particularly in English Language Arts. However, the school performs better on Regents exams, with proficiency rates of 75-80% on Living Environment, Algebra I, and Common Core English Language Arts. One area of concern is the school's high chronic absenteeism rates, which have ranged from 14.3% to 37.8% in recent years, significantly higher than the state average.

Compared to nearby schools like Genesee Valley Central School and Scio Central School, Whitesville Central School has a lower student-teacher ratio, indicating potentially more individualized attention. The school has also seen a significant increase in spending per student, from $17,252 in 2020-2021 to $40,870 in 2023-2024, which is higher than the nearby schools. It remains to be seen if this increased investment will translate to improved academic outcomes for the students.
