Summary:

The 13208 zip code area of Syracuse, New York is home to 5 schools, including 4 elementary schools and 1 middle school, all part of the Syracuse City School District, except for Lyncourt School which is part of the Lyncourt Union Free School District.

Among the schools in the 13208 zip code, Lyncourt School stands out as a high-performing outlier, with significantly higher proficiency rates on state assessments compared to the other schools and the state averages. In contrast, Grant Middle School has particularly low proficiency rates, with only 9-35% of students meeting proficiency standards. Lemoyne Elementary School also performs well, with the highest proficiency rates among the elementary schools in the 13208 zip code.

The data reveals that the schools in the 13208 zip code serve a high-need student population, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 64% to 97%. However, higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratios do not necessarily translate to better academic outcomes, as seen in the case of Lemoyne Elementary School. The findings suggest the need for further investigation into the factors contributing to the disparities in academic performance and the potential benefits of school choice for families in the area.
