Best Public Schools in Zip Code 11730

Summary:

The 11730 zip code area is home to two elementary schools - John F Kennedy Elementary School and Timber Point Elementary School. While both schools are part of the East Islip Union Free School District, they exhibit some notable differences in their academic performance and student demographics.

Timber Point Elementary School has a stronger historical track record, ranking in the top 20% of New York elementary schools in 2011-2012 and maintaining a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger in the past. In contrast, John F Kennedy Elementary School has shown more recent improvements, with its state-wide ranking climbing in the last few years. However, John F Kennedy Elementary serves a higher percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting it may serve a more economically disadvantaged population.

While the available data does not allow for a definitive comparison of academic performance, it appears that both schools are slightly below the state average based on test score data. The higher spending per student and larger student-teacher ratio at Timber Point Elementary may be contributing factors to its past academic success, but further investigation would be needed to draw firm conclusions. Overall, the 11730 zip code area offers parents a choice between two elementary schools with distinct characteristics and performance histories.
