Summary:
The South Huntington Union Free School District in New York is home to 4 elementary schools that serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. These schools include Oakwood Primary Center, Birchwood Intermediate School, Maplewood Intermediate School, and Countrywood Primary Center.
Among these schools, Maplewood Intermediate School stands out as the highest-performing, ranking 1,508 out of 2,445 New York elementary schools for the 2023-2024 school year. Maplewood's test scores, particularly in 4th and 5th grade English Language Arts and Math, are generally higher than the district and state averages. In contrast, Birchwood Intermediate School has a lower statewide ranking but its 3rd grade Math proficiency rate of 50% in 2022-2023 was significantly higher than the district and state averages.
The schools in the South Huntington Union Free School District have relatively high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 48.9% at Countrywood Primary Center to 58.77% at Birchwood Intermediate School. This suggests a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student populations. However, the district's spending per student, which is higher than the state average, and the relatively low student-teacher ratios across the schools indicate that resources are being allocated to support these economically disadvantaged students.
