Summary:
The 11782 zip code area in New York is home to 3 schools - 2 elementary schools and 1 middle school, all part of the Sayville Union Free School District. While the elementary schools have respectable performance, the standout school in the area is Sayville Middle School, which ranks in the top 25% of New York middle schools and has maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Sayville Middle School excels in several key areas, including significantly higher proficiency rates on state assessments compared to state averages, particularly in math and science. The school also boasts a 100% pass rate on Regents exams in Living Environment and Algebra I. In contrast, the two elementary schools in the area, Lincoln Avenue Elementary School and Sunrise Drive Elementary School, have more mixed performance, with proficiency rates that lag behind the middle school and state averages in some subjects.
Across the schools, student-teacher ratios are relatively low, and free/reduced lunch rates are also on the lower side, suggesting a more affluent student population. Spending per student is higher at the middle school compared to the elementary schools. While the district as a whole is performing well above average, the significant performance gap between the middle school and elementary schools in the 11782 zip code area is an interesting finding that warrants further exploration.
