Summary:
The 13039 zip code area is home to two elementary schools - Cicero Elementary School and Lakeshore Road Elementary School, both part of the North Syracuse Central School District. While the schools share a similar geographic location, the data suggests notable differences in their academic performance and student demographics.
Cicero Elementary School appears to be the stronger performing school, with higher proficiency rates on state assessments in both English Language Arts and Math compared to the district and state averages. The school also has a higher statewide ranking, placing it in the top half of New York elementary schools. In contrast, Lakeshore Road Elementary has lower proficiency rates and a lower statewide ranking, placing it in the bottom third of New York elementary schools.
The data also reveals differences in student socioeconomic status, with Lakeshore Road Elementary having a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch compared to Cicero Elementary. This suggests that factors such as curriculum, teaching quality, and student demographics may be contributing to the academic performance gap between the two schools. Additionally, the fact that both schools are part of the North Syracuse Central School District, which is ranked 630 out of 874 districts in New York, indicates potential district-level challenges that may be impacting the individual school performance.
