Best Public Schools in Zip Code 11980

Summary:

The 11980 zip code is home to a single elementary school, C E Walters School, which serves grades kindergarten through 4th and is part of the Longwood Central School District. While the school has a diverse student population, its academic performance is mixed, with 3rd-grade students outperforming the district in English Language Arts (ELA) and math, but 4th-grade students falling short of both district and state averages.

Nearly half of the students at C E Walters School come from economically disadvantaged households, as indicated by the high rate of free or reduced-price lunch eligibility. The school spends a relatively high $19,028 per student, but this has not translated to consistently strong academic outcomes. In fact, C E Walters School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools and maintained a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past few years, suggesting room for improvement in the school's overall performance.

Despite the challenges faced by C E Walters School, the diverse student population and the school's efforts to support its students are noteworthy. As parents and community members seek to understand the educational options in the 11980 zip code, it is important to consider the unique characteristics and performance of this single school, while also exploring opportunities for collaboration and improvement to ensure all students have access to a high-quality education.
