While the elementary schools in Elmont generally outperform the state average, Elmont Memorial High School has seen fluctuations in its performance, dropping from a rank of 341 out of 519 New York high schools in 2020-2021 to 577 out of 1,228 in 2022-2023. This decline warrants further investigation. Additionally, the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 47.64% to 57.42%, indicates a significant population of economically disadvantaged students in the Elmont school district, which should be considered when analyzing the schools' performance and identifying potential areas for targeted support.
