Summary:

The 12207 zip code in Albany, New York has only one school, Arbor Hill Elementary School, which serves grades PK-5 and is part of the Albany City School District. With a total enrollment of 277 students, Arbor Hill Elementary School has consistently underperformed compared to the district and state averages on New York State Assessments, ranking in the bottom 10% of elementary schools in New York.

Arbor Hill Elementary School's proficiency rates on state assessments are significantly lower than the district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Math across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 16.67% of 3rd-grade students at Arbor Hill were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 41.54% in the district and 54.15% statewide. The school's science proficiency rate for 5th-grade students is also low, at 20.45%, compared to 32.64% in the district and 45.02% statewide.

Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $42,753 and a low student-teacher ratio of 9.9 students per teacher, Arbor Hill Elementary School continues to struggle academically. This suggests that the school may be facing systemic challenges that are not being adequately addressed, potentially related to the high percentage of students (83.03%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a predominantly low-income student population.
