Summary:
Greenport Union Free School District has only one elementary school, Greenport Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. The school's academic performance has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools, with significantly lower proficiency rates on state assessments compared to the state averages.
Despite higher per-student spending than the state average, Greenport Elementary School struggles to provide a high-quality education to its students. The school's performance on state tests in English Language Arts, math, and science is well below the state averages, with proficiency rates ranging from as low as 6.9% in 3rd grade ELA to 62.16% in 6th grade math, compared to state averages of 42.6% to 43.64% in ELA and 53.93% to 50.56% in math. The school also has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 61.36%, which could be a contributing factor to the low academic performance.
The data suggests that Greenport Union Free School District has significant room for improvement in terms of academic performance at the elementary school level. Identifying and addressing the root causes of the school's low performance, such as teaching quality, curriculum, or school leadership, could be a valuable next step in ensuring that all students in the district receive a high-quality education.
