Summary:

The 12534 zip code area is home to 3 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Hudson City School District. While the district as a whole is ranked 800 out of 874 in New York with a 0-star rating, a few schools stand out in both positive and negative ways.

Hudson High School performs relatively well, ranking 741 out of 1,234 New York high schools and earning a 2-star rating. The school has strong Regents exam proficiency rates in several subjects, and its graduation rate of 84.3% is respectable. In contrast, Hudson Junior High School is ranked 1,405 out of 1,500 New York middle schools, with a 0-star rating and low proficiency rates on state assessments.

Across the district, there are concerns about equity and resource allocation, as all three schools have high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Additionally, Montgomery C Smith Elementary School has the highest spending per student at $26,568, while Hudson High School has the highest at $41,900. The district's overall underperformance and high chronic absenteeism rates at the high school level suggest that targeted interventions may be necessary to improve educational outcomes for students in this area.
