Summary:
The zip code 11749 contains a single elementary school, the Andrew T Morrow School, which serves grades K-6 and has a total enrollment of 795 students. The school is part of the Central Islip Union Free School District, which is ranked 749 out of 866 school districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
While the Andrew T Morrow School has a diverse student population, with a majority of Hispanic students and significant representation of African American and other racial/ethnic groups, its academic performance lags behind the district and state averages, particularly in the upper grades. The school's English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency rates are lower than the district and state, suggesting that the school may face challenges in providing quality education to its students. Additionally, the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (78.99%) indicates that the school serves a predominantly low-income population, which may contribute to the academic challenges.
Despite the school's relatively high spending per student ($21,543) and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 13.4 to 1, the low academic performance indicates that these resources may not be effectively utilized or allocated to support student learning. Further investigation into the school's practices, curriculum, and support systems could provide valuable insights to address these issues and improve student outcomes.
