Summary:
The city of Southampton, New York is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The schools in this area show a mix of strong and struggling performance, with Tuckahoe School standing out as the highest-performing institution in the data set.
Tuckahoe School consistently outperforms the district and state averages on state assessments, particularly in math and English language arts. In 2023-2024, the school ranked 810 out of 2,445 New York elementary schools and earned a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. In contrast, Southampton High School has a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 84.3% and strong Regents exam pass rates in certain subjects, but also struggles with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 34.1%.
The Southampton Union Free School District, which encompasses three of the four schools, is ranked 668 out of 865 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. This suggests that the district as a whole may face challenges in providing high-quality education across all its schools. However, the data also highlights the importance of looking beyond just overall school rankings or ratings, as individual metrics and test scores can reveal both strengths and areas for improvement within each institution.
