Issues
C-NS faces the problem of overcrowding. As of 2010, the school reportedly served 2,300 students. Although many district restructuring plans have been discussed by the North Syracuse Central School District Board of Education, there have been no changes made to accommodate this overcrowding problem.
Although the school experiences overcrowding, over 80% of students have passed all of the New York State Regents exams. As a result, the school was given a satisfactory report.
