Best Public Schools in Zip Code 13421

Summary:

The 13421 zip code area in New York is home to 3 schools, including 2 elementary schools (Seneca Street School and W F Prior Elementary School) and 1 high school (Oneida Senior High School). These schools serve students in the Oneida City School District.

Among the 3 schools, Oneida Senior High School stands out as the highest-performing, with strong test scores across various Regents exams and a 4-year graduation rate of 84.3% - above the district and state averages. However, the school also has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5%. The elementary schools, while lagging behind state averages in some areas, are performing better than the district average in certain grade levels and subjects, suggesting potential opportunities to learn from their practices.

Across all 3 schools, a significant percentage of students (ranging from 37.73% to 39.13%) receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating that the schools are serving a population with high economic needs. The differences in per-student spending and student-teacher ratios between the high school and elementary schools may contribute to the observed performance gaps, and examining how resources are distributed and utilized could provide insights into ways to support the lower-performing schools.
