RANDOLPH ACADEMY

RANDOLPH ACADEMY is a Title I public school that is part of the RANDOLPH ACADEMY UNION FREE SCHOOL DISTRICT school district, located in RANDOLPH, NY with about 92 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 17 teachers, RANDOLPH ACADEMY has a student/teacher ratio of about 5:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

RANDOLPH ACADEMY is a specialized public school district located in Randolph, New York, primarily serving students with emotional, social, and learning challenges.

The school is notable for its commitment to a "Restorative Practices" framework, which emphasizes building strong relationships and resolving conflicts through community dialogue rather than traditional punitive measures.
