The Syosset Central School District has once again earned a top placement on Niche.com’s annual list of best school districts in each state. The district ranked fourth in New York State for 2018, moving up one spot from last year.
Syosset received an overall Niche grade of A+ and achieved especially high marks in the categories of academics, teachers, clubs and activities, college prep and health and safety. The rankings were calculated based on various analyses of data from the U.S. Department of Education as well as test scores, graduation rates, college readiness, SAT/ACT scores and more.
In addition to the stellar Niche rating, Syosset schools have been recognized on other prominent lists. Earlier this year, Syosset High School came in at No. 24 in New York State and No. 173 nationally in U.S. News & World Report’s rankings of the “Best High Schools in America” and was recognized as a National Blue Ribbon school.“While we believe that Syosset is one of New York State’s Best School Districts, we try to not place too much emphasis on these types of rankings,” said Superintendent of Schools Dr. Tom Rogers. “The acknowledgment is a welcome positive reflection on our programs and practices, and the dedication of our staff members in teaching and motivating students.”
