Armor Elementary School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, dropping from a high of 322 out of 2,386 New York elementary schools in 2016-2017 to 1,569 out of 2,445 in 2024-2025. The school's performance on state assessments is generally below the district and state averages, particularly in math, with only 41.67% of 5th-grade students proficient or better in 2024-2025, compared to 43.09% for the district and 54.16% for the state.
