Summary:

The zip code 13077 is home to a single middle school, Homer Junior High School, which serves grades 6-8 and is part of the Homer Central School District. The school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 834 out of 1500 middle schools in 2024-2025 to 585 out of 1500 in 2022-2023.

While Homer Junior High School's overall proficiency rates on state assessments in English Language Arts and Math are below the state averages, the school stands out in its 8th-grade Science proficiency, which is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the school's Algebra I Regents exam proficiency rate is 100%, much higher than the district and state averages. However, the school's free and reduced-price lunch rate of 44.07% suggests that it may be serving a population with greater socioeconomic challenges, which could be a factor in its academic performance.

The school's per-student spending of $28,455 is relatively high, indicating that the district is allocating significant resources to the school. Further investigation into how these resources are being utilized and whether they are effectively supporting student learning could provide valuable insights for the district and the community.
