Summary:
The city of Shortsville, New York is home to three schools that are part of the Manchester-Shortsville Central School District (Red Jacket), which is ranked 599 out of 865 school districts in New York and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The schools serve students from elementary through high school and provide a mixed picture of academic performance.
Red Jacket High School stands out for its strong performance on Regents/Common Core exams, with several subjects having over 90% proficiency rates. However, the school also struggles with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 34.1%. In contrast, Red Jacket Middle School excels in specific subjects like Regents/Living Environment and Algebra I, but performs poorly in 6th-8th grade ELA and Math on the NY State Assessments.
Across the district, there are concerns about inconsistent performance across grade levels and socioeconomic challenges, as indicated by the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, especially at Red Jacket Middle School (78.12%). Addressing these issues, such as chronic absenteeism and targeted interventions, could be crucial for improving overall district performance.
