Top rankedRombout Middle School1175^th of 1,500 New York middle schools

Summary:

The 12508 zip code in New York is home to a single middle school, Rombout Middle School, which serves grades 6-8 and is part of the Beacon City School District. While the school excels in certain Regents exams, its overall academic performance on state assessments is below the state average, and its statewide ranking has declined in recent years.

Rombout Middle School's performance on Regents exams in Algebra I and Living Environment/Biology is significantly higher than the district and state averages, with 100% and 97.06% proficiency rates, respectively. However, the school's proficiency rates on state assessments in English Language Arts, Math, and Science for grades 6-8 are generally below the state average. The school's statewide ranking has dropped from 976 out of 1500 middle schools in 2022-2023 to 1175 out of 1500 in 2024-2025, with a 1-star rating.

Despite the school's academic challenges, it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.6 students per teacher and spends a relatively high amount of $28,808 per student. Additionally, the school serves a population with a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 45.53% in 2023-2024. These factors suggest that the school may be facing socioeconomic challenges that could be contributing to its academic performance, and the low student-teacher ratio may not be translating into higher overall achievement.
