Top rankedTroy Middle School1117^th of 1,500 New York middle schools

Summary:

The 12180 zip code in Troy, New York is home to a single middle school, Troy Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. The school is part of the Troy City School District, which is ranked 674 out of 874 school districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Troy Middle School's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates on New York state assessments, is generally below the state average across grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 6th grade ELA proficiency rate was 42.27% compared to the state average of 50.86%. However, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (72.67% in 2023-2024), indicating a relatively high-need student population. Despite these challenges, the school's spending per student is relatively high at $32,890 for the 2023-2024 school year, and the student-teacher ratio is lower than the typical middle school ratio at 8.9.

While Troy Middle School's overall performance is below state averages, there are some bright spots, such as the 100% proficiency rate on the Regents Algebra I exam in 2024-2025. The school's fluctuating statewide ranking and star rating from SchoolDigger suggest that its performance is not consistent, and it may be experiencing challenges in maintaining or improving its academic outcomes. Without any other middle schools in the 12180 zip code to compare to, it is difficult to determine how Troy Middle School is performing relative to its local peers.
