Southold Union Free School District


Summary:

The Southold Union Free School District in New York serves students from two schools - Southold Junior-Senior High School and Southold Elementary School. The high school has seen fluctuating rankings in recent years, though it maintains strong performance on Regents exams. The elementary school shows mixed results, with some grade levels exceeding state averages on assessments while others lag behind.

Southold Junior-Senior High School stands out for its consistently high graduation rate of 84.3% and low dropout rate of 4.9%. However, the school also grapples with a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 34.1%, which may be impacting student learning. In contrast, Southold Elementary School benefits from a lower student-teacher ratio of 8.6, compared to 9.9 at the high school, potentially allowing for more individualized attention.

Both schools serve a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with free/reduced lunch rates of 40.53% at the high school and 35.02% at the elementary school. This suggests the district may need to allocate additional resources and support to address the unique needs of these students. Overall, the Southold Union Free School District appears to have pockets of strength, such as the high school's Regents exam performance and the elementary school's early literacy development, but also faces challenges in areas like math instruction and chronic absenteeism that require further attention.
