CS Driver has a staff of many dedicated and hardworking people. Together they work with the elementary and high school to help the children through their entire public education career. It is a small district with a community that has a huge effect on the school dynamics.

I have nothing but great things to say. Sadly, we will be moving out of district. I hope that we are able to find another school district with this level of top notch staff and involved parents. They are so focused on each individual child and maiking sure that their school experince is a positive one. We are very sad to go... it has been great and would love to have seen our children graduate from here!

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.
