Summary:
The Longwood Central School District in New York is home to 4 elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 4th grade. While the district as a whole performs below the state average, there is significant variation in the academic performance of individual schools within the district.
The standout schools are C E Walters School, which has the highest statewide ranking and the best proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math, and Ridge Elementary School, which has the second-highest ranking and the highest 4th grade Math proficiency rate among the district's schools. In contrast, Coram Elementary School and West Middle Island School lag behind in academic performance.
The data also reveals that the schools in the Longwood Central School District serve a population with significant economic disadvantages, with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This socioeconomic factor may contribute to the overall lower academic performance of the district compared to the state average. Addressing these challenges and identifying strategies to improve outcomes across all schools in the district could be a key focus for the district's leadership.
