Summary:
The North Bellmore Union Free School District operates five elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. The district is located in a relatively affluent area, as evidenced by the low rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch across the schools.
Among the standout schools in the district, John G Dinkelmeyer School consistently performs above the district and state averages on state assessments for English Language Arts and Math, with an impressive 92% of 6th graders proficient in Math in 2024-2025. Newbridge Road School also demonstrates strong academic performance, with proficiency rates above the district and state in most subjects and grade levels, including the highest 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate in the district at 67.5% in 2024-2025. Additionally, Martin Avenue Elementary School stands out for its high per-student spending of $31,576 and low student-teacher ratio of 11.6, the lowest in the district.
While the district as a whole performs well, with several schools consistently ranking in the top half of New York elementary schools, there is some variation in performance between the schools. For example, Park Avenue School had lower 4th grade Math proficiency at 17.86% compared to 58.64% statewide in 2024-2025. Overall, the North Bellmore Union Free School District appears to be providing a high-quality education, with several standout schools that demonstrate exceptional academic performance.
