Summary:
The Smithtown Central School District in New York is home to three middle schools serving grades 6-8: Great Hollow Middle School, Accompsett Middle School, and Nesaquake Middle School. Among these, Great Hollow Middle School stands out as the top performer, consistently ranking among the best middle schools in New York state and maintaining a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Great Hollow Middle School boasts the highest proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Math across all grade levels, significantly outperforming the Smithtown Central School District and state averages. While Accompsett Middle School also performs well, particularly in 7th grade, Nesaquake Middle School has more mixed results, with lower proficiency rates in 6th and 8th grade Math.
The three schools have a predominantly white student population, with Great Hollow Middle School being the most diverse, having higher percentages of African American, Hispanic, and Asian students. Interestingly, the school with the highest spending per student, Nesaquake Middle School, does not necessarily outperform the other schools in all subject areas, suggesting that factors beyond just district-level policies and resources may be influencing the schools' outcomes.
