Summary:
The Bay Shore Union Free School District contains a single high school, Bay Shore Senior High School, which serves grades 9-12. The school has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and its statewide ranking has improved in recent years, though its performance on key metrics like graduation rate, dropout rate, and chronic absenteeism is mixed compared to state averages.
Bay Shore Senior High School's academic performance is uneven, with some subject areas like Algebra II and Global History scoring above the state average, while others like Geometry and Earth Science are below average. The school's Algebra I performance is particularly concerning, with only 32.52% of students scoring proficient or better, compared to the state average of 31.42%. The school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5% may be a contributing factor to its lower-than-average graduation rate of 84.3%.
Despite these challenges, the school's per-student spending of $32,316 is higher than the state average, and its student-teacher ratio of 11.1 is slightly lower, suggesting a relatively favorable learning environment. With a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, the district may need to provide additional resources and targeted interventions to support student learning and well-being. By addressing the identified areas of concern and building on the school's strengths, the district may be able to help Bay Shore Senior High School achieve even greater success.
