Summary:
The 11368 zip code area of Corona, New York is home to 14 schools, including 11 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. While the schools in this area face significant challenges, with generally lower proficiency rates compared to district and state averages, a few standout institutions demonstrate strong academic performance.
PS 92 Harry T Stewart Senior is an elementary school that significantly outperforms the New York City Geographic District #24 and the state of New York in both English Language Arts and Math proficiency. In contrast, Corona Arts And Sciences Academy, a middle school, stands out with some of the highest proficiency rates in the 11368 area, particularly in English Language Arts. The High School For Arts And Business also demonstrates strong performance on Regents exams and has a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 84.3%.
However, the majority of schools in the 11368 zip code area struggle, with proficiency rates well below the district and state averages. This disparity in academic performance is likely exacerbated by the high rates of economic disadvantage, as indicated by the high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch across the schools. Addressing these educational inequities and leveraging the successful practices of the standout schools could be key to improving outcomes for the students in this community.
