Summary:
The 14760 zip code is home to a single high school, Olean Senior High School, which serves grades 9-12 and has an enrollment of 658 students. While the school's performance metrics are generally below state averages, it serves a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with nearly half of the student body qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.
Olean Senior High School's 4-year graduation rate stands at 84.3%, with a dropout rate of 4.5% and a chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5%. The school's academic performance, as measured by state assessments and Regents exams, shows room for improvement, with proficiency rates ranging from 26.8% in 8th grade ELA to 89.66% in certain Regents subjects. The school's spending per student is relatively high at $25,628, but this investment does not appear to be fully translating into optimal student outcomes.
Compared to the Olean City School District and the state, Olean Senior High School's performance is generally better than the district average but still lags behind state-level benchmarks. Addressing the factors contributing to chronic absenteeism, improving academic achievement, and ensuring equitable resource allocation could be key priorities for the school and district to enhance student success.
