Summary:

The 12443 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Ernest C Myer School, which serves grades K-4 and is part of the Kingston City School District. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and high per-student spending, its academic performance is mixed compared to district and state averages.

Ernest C Myer School's 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate of 32.35% is lower than the district average of 29.61% and the state average of 42.6%, but its 4th grade ELA proficiency rate of 48.72% is higher than the district average of 31.25%, though still lower than the state average of 47.05%. In math, the school outperforms the district in both 3rd and 4th grade, but lags behind state averages. With a free/reduced lunch rate of 32.02%, the school serves a relatively high-need student population, which may contribute to the challenges it faces in meeting state academic standards.

Overall, the data suggests that Ernest C Myer School is a relatively low-performing school within a low-performing district, despite its apparent resource advantages. Further analysis would be needed to fully understand the factors contributing to the school's performance and identify areas for improvement.
