Visit A Community Together (ACT) for Education for positive happenings in Monroe County public schools.

The National Association of Music Merchants ranked the Top Communities for music education. Ten schools districts in Monroe County were listed: Brighton, Churchville-Chili, East Irondequoit, Greece, Honeoye Falls-Lima, Penfield, Pittsford, Rush-Henrietta, Webster and West Irondequoit.

The US News and World Report rankings for NYS state schools have 6 Monroe County schools: Pittsford, Brighton, Penfield, Honeoye Falls-Lima, Fairport and West Irondequoit.

The Washington Post listed seven Monroe County schools in the 100 most challenging schools in NYS: Pittsford Mendon High School, Brighton High School, Pittsford Sutherland High School, Webster Thomas High School, Honeoye-Falls Lima High School, West Irondequoit High School and East Irondequoit High School.

The combined graduation rate for all of Monroe County Schools (NYSED, 2015) is 88%, higher than the national rate of 82% and the state average of 78%.

According to Education Week’s 2016 "Quality Counts" report card, NYS schools rank 9th in the nation with a grade of B-, but for equity in K-12 achievement, NYS received an A- (this grade is based on both poverty achievement gaps and progress in closing those gaps).
