Glen Cove City School District

The Glen Cove City School District in New York serves students from 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance across the district, with the Robert M Finley Middle School and Glen Cove High School generally outperforming the elementary schools on state assessments and Regents exams.

The middle school stands out for its strong performance on the Regents Algebra I exam, with 95.19% of students proficient or better, significantly higher than the district and state averages. The high school also performs better than the district on several Regents exams, including Algebra II, Global History, and U.S. History. However, the high school's 4-year graduation rate of 84.3% is below the state average, and it has a relatively high dropout rate of 4.9%.

Across the district, the schools face challenges with high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, ranging from 53.96% to 69.86%, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students. The variation in spending per student and student-teacher ratios across the schools may also contribute to the performance gaps. The data highlights opportunities for the district to focus its efforts on addressing chronic absenteeism, boosting performance on state assessments, and supporting economically disadvantaged students to improve overall student outcomes.
