Summary:
The Valley Stream 30 Union Free School District is home to three high-performing elementary schools that serve students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. These schools consistently rank among the top elementary schools in New York State, with Clearstream Avenue School and Forest Road School emerging as the standout institutions in the district.
Clearstream Avenue School is the highest-ranked school in the district, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and outperforming the district and state averages in most grade-level English Language Arts and Math assessments. Forest Road School is a close second, ranking 305 out of 2,439 New York elementary schools and demonstrating strong performance in Math assessments.
While all three schools serve diverse student populations, they maintain consistently high academic standards. Shaw Avenue School has the highest percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients, but still manages to outperform the district and state averages in many areas. The differences in spending per student and student-teacher ratios across the schools suggest that the district allocates resources strategically to support the unique needs of each institution and its students.
