Queensbury Senior High School had the highest enrollment among Warren County schools, welcoming 974 students during the 2023-24 academic year, according to the New York State Education Department.

Data also showed that most of the students were white, representing 92.6% of the Queensbury Senior High School's total enrollment.

Among the 19 schools in Warren County, Queensbury Elementary School ranked second in enrollment numbers with 958 students, while Queensbury Middle School welcomed 680 students and came in third in the 2023-24 school year.

Queensbury Senior High School is part of Queensbury Union Free School District, which roughly covers four schools within Warren County and has a main office in Queensbury.

In the previous school year, Queensbury Senior High School also had the highest number of students among Warren County schools.

In 2022, New York had roughly one teacher for every 12 students, which is lower than the national average of one teacher for every 16 students. A lower student-to-teacher ratio has been found to improve students' school performance.

New York State has proposed a $45.8 billion education budget for the upcoming fiscal year. This represents a $1.5 billion increase compared to the previous year. The most significant portion of this budget is allocated to schools, with a total of $35.3 billion proposed. The new budget aims at increasing funds for Foundation Aid by $507 million, mainly driven by rising inflation in the U.S.
