Best Public Schools in Islandia, NY


Summary:

The city of Islandia, New York has only one school, the Andrew T Morrow School, which serves grades K-6 and has a total enrollment of 795 students. The school is part of the Central Islip Union Free School District. While the school has a predominantly Hispanic student population (82.26%), its academic performance, as measured by state assessment proficiency rates, is significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas.

The school's English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rates range from 22.73% in 6th grade to 58.62% in 3rd grade, compared to district averages of 33.27% to 26.95% and state averages of 45.82% to 44.89%. Similarly, the school's mathematics proficiency rates range from 23.66% in 6th grade to 48.68% in 4th grade, compared to district averages of 32.71% to 38.39% and state averages of 48.07% to 53.68%. Additionally, the school's ranking and rating have been declining over the past three years, from 1529 out of 2201 schools and a 2-star rating in 2020-2021 to the current 1812 out of 2439 schools and a 1-star rating.

The high poverty rate at the Andrew T Morrow School, with 78.99% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggests that the school serves a predominantly low-income population, which can present unique challenges in terms of educational resources and support. The school's relatively high spending per student ($21,543) compared to its academic performance raises questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources, and further analysis may be needed to understand how the school's funding is being used and identify areas for improvement.
