Summary:
The Amityville Union Free School District in New York operates 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving a predominantly Hispanic and African American student population from low-income backgrounds.
While Northeast School stands out with the lowest student-teacher ratio and percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients, the district as a whole performs significantly below the state average on academic assessments. Park Avenue School in particular has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of New York elementary schools, with high rates of free/reduced lunch eligibility and a low student-teacher ratio.
Across the district, graduation rates are below the state average, and dropout rates are relatively high. The district also faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with high rates of free/reduced lunch eligibility, suggesting the need for targeted interventions and equitable resource allocation to address these systemic issues and improve educational outcomes for students in the Amityville Union Free School District.
