Islip Union Free School District


Summary:

The Islip Union Free School District in New York consists of 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. The district is known for its diverse student population and its commitment to providing quality education to all students.

Among the standout schools in the district, Maud S Sherwood Elementary School and Islip High School have demonstrated exceptional academic performance. Maud S Sherwood Elementary School boasts significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math compared to the district and state averages, and it has earned a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, the highest in the district. Islip High School also excels, with strong performance on Regents exams and a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for the 2022-2023 school year.

However, the data also reveals a wide range of academic performance across the district, with Islip Middle School lagging behind the other schools in proficiency rates. Additionally, the high school has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5%, which may be a contributing factor to its lower graduation rate compared to the state average. The district should focus on addressing the underperformance of Islip Middle School and the lower-performing elementary schools, while also investigating the reasons for the high chronic absenteeism at the high school and implementing strategies to address it.
