Now that I have been in this distric for 4 yrs I have a much different atttitude on it . I loved it at first being a small school . Now I have to say Im sorry we ever moved here . The kids dont get the help they need ,and if you move out of the area be aware that you children will struggle from being far behind from being here !

Principal is excellent! good listener and very caring!! most staff the same way with the exception of a few teachers. The only down fall is the small town thing of who is related to who! kind of makes it hard on you and you kids if you dont like someone wether it be student or faculty . They are usually related to someone!

About the tests


In 2011-2012 New York used the New York State Assessments to test students in grades 3 through 8 in English language arts and math, and in grades 4 and 8 in science. The results for English language arts and math are displayed on GreatSchools profiles and the science results will be added when they are released in the Fall of 2013. The tests are standards-based, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of New York. The goal is for 90% of students to meet or exceed grade-level standards on the tests.
