Skaneateles is a popular upstate resort town about twenty miles southwest of Syracuse. The community sits at the north end of Skaneateles Lake, and summertime always sees a huge influx of visitors looking to take part in some boating, fishing, swimming, and sunbathing. Even after the summer season ends, the town sees a steady influx of visitors attracted by the autumn foliage and traditional holiday decorations around the community.
The picturesque Downtown district features a great selection of unique restaurants, bars, specialty shops, and art galleries near the shore, many offering terrific views over the water. While the idyllic setting makes this area a popular spot for tourism, the excellent local schools and low crime rate also make Skaneateles a great option for families.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
