Best Public Schools in Zip Code 10523

Summary:

The 10523 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 2 elementary schools (Alice E Grady Elementary School and Carl L Dixson Elementary School) and 1 high school (Alexander Hamilton High School). While the elementary schools, particularly Alice E Grady, have shown strong academic performance, the high school has struggled to keep up with district and state averages.

Alice E Grady Elementary School stands out as the highest-rated school in the area, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and consistent improvement in its statewide ranking. The school's test scores in English Language Arts and Math are generally above the district and state averages. In contrast, Alexander Hamilton High School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking and its test scores are generally below the district and state averages.

The data also reveals a significant difference in per-student spending between the schools, ranging from $20,388 at Alice E Grady Elementary School to $24,110 at Carl L Dixson Elementary School. This raises questions about the equity of resource allocation within the Elmsford Union Free School District, which encompasses all three schools and is ranked 625 out of 865 districts in New York with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
