The majority of students in Madison County schools during the 2021-22 school year were white, according to the New York State Education Department.

Of the 8,968 students attending Madison County schools, 90.8% were white. Multiracial students were the second largest ethnicity, making up 3.7% of Madison County students.

In the previous school year, white was also the most common student ethnicity in Madison County, representing 91.3% of the student body.

North Broad Street School had the most even distribution of races among county schools, with 79.8% white students, 10.4% multiracial students, 7.1% American Indian or Alaska Native students, 1.6% Hispanic students, 0.5% Black students, and 0.5% Asian or Pacific Islander students.

Compared to the previous year, total enrollment in public schools in the county increased by 0.1% in the 2021-22 school year.

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 help improve students' school performance.

A 2021 report from the NYC Center for Innovation Through Data Intelligence revealed racial and gender groups were seeing better outcomes compared to 2013, though significant disparities remained between different groups. Persistent and substantial gaps were observed, particularly between Black and Hispanic students.
