Hicksville High School also performs well, with an 84.3% four-year graduation rate and Regents exam results that exceed the state average in several subject areas. Hicksville Middle School is another relatively strong performer, with a 98.02% proficiency rate in 8th grade Earth Science.
However, the data also reveals significant variation in performance across the district's schools. While the top-performing schools like Lee Avenue excel, some of the lower-ranked elementary schools, such as Fork Lane and Dutch Lane, struggle in comparison.

Additionally, there appears to be a relationship between the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch and academic performance, with the schools serving more economically disadvantaged populations generally underperforming.
