Summary:

The 12839 zip code is home to a single public high school, Hudson Falls High School, which serves grades 9-12 and is part of the Hudson Falls Central School District. While the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past three years, it continues to face challenges in student performance and engagement.

Hudson Falls High School's 4-year graduation rate stands at 84.3%, with a dropout rate of 4.5% for the 2023-2024 school year. However, the school struggles with high chronic absenteeism, at 31.5% for the same period. Academically, the school underperforms the state average on Regents exams in subjects like Algebra I, Geometry, Chemistry, and Global History and Geography. Additionally, the school serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, with 40.51% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.

Despite these challenges, the school maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.8, and per-student spending for the 2023-2024 school year was $17,635. Addressing the root causes of the school's declining performance, high chronic absenteeism, and academic underachievement will likely require a collaborative effort between the school, district, and community stakeholders to ensure that all students have the support and resources they need to succeed.
