Summary

Searingtown School is a public alternative school serving grades K-5 in the Herricks Union Free School District in Albertson, New York. With 574 students, the school is ranked 54 out of 874 school districts in New York and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Searingtown School consistently outperforms the Herricks Union Free School District and the state of New York in proficiency rates for English Language Arts (ELA) and Math across grades 3-5. For example, in 2024-2025, Searingtown School's 5th grade ELA proficiency rate was 91.35%, compared to the district's 92.21% and the state's 56.61%. The school also has a relatively high spending per student, ranging from $21,365 to $31,910 over the past few years, and a low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 10.5 to 13.2, suggesting a focus on individualized attention.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Evergreen Charter School, Academy Charter School-Uniondale, and Academy Charter School, Searingtown School outperforms them in both ELA and Math proficiency rates. This indicates that Searingtown School is providing a high-quality education to its students. However, the school's relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 16.61% to 22.13%, suggests potential equity concerns that should be further explored.
