Summary:

The 12566 zip code is home to a single middle school, Crispell Middle School, which serves grades 6-8 and is part of the Pine Bush Central School District. While the school's academic performance has fluctuated in recent years, it has shown some strengths, particularly in its Regents exam results.

Crispell Middle School's proficiency rates on the New York State Assessments in English Language Arts and Math are generally below the state average, though they are closer to or above the district average. However, the school performs better on Regents exams, with 100% proficiency rates in Living Environment and Algebra I in 2024-2025. This suggests that the school may be better preparing its students for these more advanced, end-of-course assessments.

The school faces some challenges, including a relatively high free and reduced-price lunch rate of 48.13% in 2023-2024, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students. Despite this, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11:1, which could be a positive factor in providing more individualized attention and support for students. Overall, Crispell Middle School's performance and ranking suggest room for improvement, but the school also has some strengths that may benefit its students.
