Churchville-chili Senior High School, Churchville NY

Original Research by School Decision on Churchville-chili Senior High School

Churchville-Chili Senior High School serves grades nine through twelve from a campus on Buffalo Road in Churchville, a small residential village about fifteen miles west of Rochester in Monroe County. The school is part of a six-school district spread across three campuses; the ninth and tenth grades form their own academy on Fairbanks Road while the junior and senior classes are housed at the main high school building.

The high school enrolls students across a fairly broad range of backgrounds. Roughly a third of the enrollment qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch. The racial and ethnic composition is predominantly white, with smaller shares of students identifying as Black, Hispanic, Asian, or multiracial. The exact rates of students with individualized education plans or English learners were not available in the data, so a family may want to check with the school directly about those populations and what supports exist.

State testing results and a four-year graduation rate were not provided in the available data. This is not unusual for a school profile when state-reported metrics have not yet been released or compiled at the school level, and a parent seeking those figures should reach out to the district office or the school's web page for current proficiency and completion data. The school does offer course work in the arts and music, including band, choir, general music, and orchestra, which provides some breadth in elective options.

The housing market around Churchville-Chili is active and growing. Home values in the area are moderate for the region, and the real estate market has been moving briskly with properties spending a short time on the market. New residential construction is ongoing, with multiple subdivisions bringing new homes at a range of price points, and a recent mixed-use downtown project called Black Creek Commons has added apartments and retail. Property taxes in the district follow a steady, predictable pattern, with annual levy increases approved by voters and kept within state limits; voters recently approved a Phase VII capital improvement program for school facilities that will bring upgraded classrooms and new climate-control systems to the three elementary schools without adding to the local tax burden, funded instead through state aid and district reserves.

Churchville itself is a quiet, family-oriented village with a compact downtown centered on Main Street and Buffalo Road, where the library, shops, and civic services cluster together. The village is walkable at its core, with sidewalks and tree-lined streets, though public transit options are limited and most residents rely on cars for getting around. The local economy rests on a mix of education, health care, manufacturing, and retail; the school district itself is a major employer, as are several long-standing local businesses. The town has low property taxes thanks to its unusual arrangement within the Town of Riga, which has no town property tax.

The high school is one piece of a district that has been investing steadily in buildings and infrastructure. Families considering this school are entering a community on a measured growth trajectory with moderate housing costs and stable school operations, though they will want to confirm current academic metrics and program details directly with the school.

Graduation rate (ACGR) reflects the federally published Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate for the most recent year available. We refresh this data annually at the close of each academic year in June. The federal source publishes a banded rate (for example, "90-94%") instead of an exact number for cohorts small enough to risk identifying individual students. The state distribution chart, where shown, plots every school in the state with a published rate or band; schools whose rate is federally suppressed are excluded. Where the federal source publishes a band rather than an exact rate, the school is placed within its band using a stable, ID-derived offset, so its position is consistent across visits.
