Summary:

The 12501 zip code area in Northeast Central School District is home to 3 schools: 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the schools share similar spending per student, they face varying challenges, with some standout performers and others struggling to meet state standards.

Eugene Brooks Intermediate School, the middle school, has seen a decline in its statewide ranking in recent years, dropping from 829 out of 1500 New York middle schools in 2024-2025 to 1159 out of 1504 in 2023-2024. The school's performance on state assessments is mixed, with some grades performing above the district and state averages, while others are significantly below. However, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.6, which could be an advantage.

In contrast, Webutuck High School has maintained a consistent statewide ranking, placing around 800-840 out of 1200-1300 New York high schools over the past few years. However, the school's four-year graduation rate of 84.3% is slightly below the state average, and its dropout rate of 4.5% is higher than the state average. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5% is also a concern. While the school's performance on some Regents exams is better than the district and state, it struggles in other subject areas.
