Summary:

The Mineola Union Free School District 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 strong academic performance, with several standout schools that have consistently high rankings and test scores.

Among the standout schools in the district is Mineola Middle School, which has shown consistent improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from 461st out of 1,500 New York middle schools in 2022-2023 to 410th out of 1,500 in 2024-2025. The school's performance on state assessments is also strong, with over 50% proficiency in English Language Arts and Math across grades 5-7. Another high-performing school is Meadow Drive School, an elementary school that has a long history of high performance, ranking as high as 40th out of 2,263 New York elementary schools in 2009-2010.

While the district generally performs well, there are some areas of concern, particularly at the high school level. Mineola High School has a relatively high dropout rate of 4.5% and a chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5%, both of which are significantly higher than the state averages. However, the high school's students generally perform above the district and state averages on Regents exams, with particularly strong performance in Common Core English Language Arts, Global History and Geography, and U.S. History and Government.
