Hilton High School, Hilton NY - Test Scores & Data

Original Research by School Decision on Hilton High School

Hilton High School is a comprehensive public high school serving grades nine through twelve in the village of Hilton, a small residential community about sixteen to twenty miles northwest of Rochester in northwestern Monroe County. The school enrolls roughly fourteen hundred students and sits on a suburban campus setting within the village boundary, though most students arrive by car rather than walking from the immediate neighborhood.

The student body is predominantly white, with smaller populations of students identifying as Hispanic, multiracial, two or more races, Black, and Asian. A substantial share of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating economic diversity within the enrollment. Specific counts of students receiving special education services or designated as English learners were not available in the data provided.

State assessment data for Hilton High School was not available for this school year. The data shows tested counts of zero across mathematics, English language arts, and science for grade eight, which is not consistent with a high school serving grades nine through twelve and likely reflects either a data reporting gap or a timing mismatch between the assessment calendar and data collection. Without current state test results, proficiency information and academic performance trends cannot be characterized from the material at hand. A parent may want to contact the school directly for current achievement data and information about how students in the school's actual grade bands are performing.

The housing market in the surrounding Hilton area reflects modest appreciation and steady demand. Home values in the area are moderate for the region, and rental costs are relatively affordable compared to median household income. The local real estate market is showing increased inventory and listing activity, which historically can indicate either cooling demand or greater supply. Mortgage rates remain elevated by recent historical standards.

Hilton Central School District, the parent district, recently completed a no-cost capital project approved by voters to address maintenance, safety, security, technology, and energy efficiency across all five district schools. In the most recent budget cycle, the district held the tax levy increase within state-mandated limits, and rising home values resulted in projected tax rate decreases across the towns served. The district has been navigating a transition to zero-emission school buses, a state mandate taking effect in 2027, following community votes on diesel and electric bus purchases in 2025.

The village itself is a small, mostly residential community with a compact retail core along Main Street and a historic agrarian heritage. It remains car-dependent outside the village center, and the wider area retains a rural character. Community events, including a summer concert series, the annual Apple Fest, and holiday celebrations, anchor civic life. The school district functions as the area's largest employer.

No graduation rate, current course offerings, or detailed program information was available in the provided data. Families seeking specifics about course selection, extracurriculars, post-secondary pathways, or college preparation should engage 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.
