Summary:
The Riverhead Central School District in New York is home to 4 elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance, socioeconomic factors, and funding allocation among these schools.
Aquebogue Elementary School and Riley Avenue School stand out as the top-performing schools, with the highest state assessment test scores in both English Language Arts and Math. These schools also have the highest percentages of white students and the lowest percentages of Hispanic students, as well as the highest per-student spending. In contrast, Phillips Avenue School and Roanoke Avenue School have significantly lower test scores and higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
The data suggests a potential correlation between socioeconomic factors and academic performance within the district. The schools with higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch also have the lowest state assessment test scores, raising questions about the equity of funding allocation and access to educational opportunities across the Riverhead Central School District.
