Summary:

The 12564 zip code area is home to three schools that are part of the Pawling Central School District: Pawling Elementary School, Pawling High School, and Pawling Middle School. The district is ranked 384 out of 874 school districts in New York and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Pawling High School stands out as the top performer in the area, ranking in the top 20% of high schools in New York and maintaining a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past three years. The school boasts strong academic performance, with high proficiency rates on Regents exams across multiple subjects, and a graduation rate above the state average. In contrast, Pawling Elementary School and Pawling Middle School have more average performance metrics compared to their statewide peers, with 3-star ratings from SchoolDigger.

The Pawling Central School District invests heavily in its schools, with significantly higher per-student spending and relatively low student-teacher ratios across all three schools. However, the district also serves a sizable population of economically disadvantaged students, with free/reduced lunch rates higher than the state average. This suggests the district may face unique challenges and require targeted support to ensure all students receive a high-quality education.
