The 13126 zip code area of Oswego, New York is home to 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Oswego City School District. While the district as a whole is ranked 699 out of 874 in New York and rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger, a few schools stand out in the data.

Oswego Middle School has the highest statewide ranking among the middle schools, ranking 972 out of 1500 New York middle schools and receiving a 2-star rating. It also has strong performance on Regents exams, with 100% proficiency in Algebra I and Life Science Biology. Meanwhile, Oswego High School is the highest performing school in the data set, ranking 724 out of 1234 New York high schools and earning a 2-star rating. The high school has a 84.3% four-year graduation rate and strong Regents exam scores, particularly in Algebra II and Chemistry.

In contrast, the elementary schools in the 13126 zip code area show a wide range of performance on the New York State Assessments. Kingsford Park Elementary stands out with higher proficiency rates, while FitzHugh Park Elementary and Leighton Elementary struggle, with many proficiency rates below 40%. The high free and reduced lunch rates across the schools, ranging from 39.02% to 59.43%, also indicate a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, raising concerns about equity in the district.
