Best Public Schools in Zip Code 13690

Summary:

The 13690 zip code area is home to two schools - Clifton-Fine Elementary School and Clifton-Fine Junior-Senior High School, both part of the Clifton-Fine Central School District. While the elementary school struggles with proficiency rates, the junior-senior high school stands out as the stronger performer in the area.

The Clifton-Fine Junior-Senior High School has a higher statewide ranking, with a 3-star rating, and outperforms the elementary school and district averages in several subject areas, including English Language Arts, Math, and Science. The high school also boasts a relatively strong 84.3% four-year graduation rate and a lower 4.5% dropout rate.

In contrast, the Clifton-Fine Elementary School has mixed performance, with some grade levels exceeding state averages in ELA and Math, while others fall significantly behind. The elementary school's high student-teacher ratio of 11.1 compared to the high school's 6.2 may be a contributing factor to the lower academic performance. Additionally, the high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at both schools suggests a relatively economically disadvantaged student population, which can present additional challenges for academic achievement.
