Understanding the 4/10 Rating
With a rating of 4/10 (below average), Evans-Brant Central School District (Lake Shore) ranks among New York’s below average-rated school systems. Our ratings are based on state assessment results — the share of students scoring proficient or above in reading and math, as reported in the U.S. Department of Education’s EDFacts collection.
