Summary

Ps 129 Patricia Larkin is an elementary school in College Point, New York, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 1,142 students. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #25, which is ranked 327 out of 874 districts in New York and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ps 129 Patricia Larkin has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the years, dropping from a high of 350 out of 2,413 New York elementary schools in 2018-2019 to a low of 1,394 out of 2,445 in 2024-2025. The school's performance on state assessments is generally below the district and state averages, with proficiency rates ranging from around 40-60% in English Language Arts and Math. However, the school's Asian students perform better than Hispanic students, who have the lowest proficiency rates among the reported subgroups. Despite the school's relatively high spending per student ($29,704 in 2023-2024) and low student-teacher ratio, its academic performance has not kept pace with the increased resources.

Compared to nearby schools in the same district, such as Ps 214 Cadwallader Colden, Ps 21 Edward Hart, and Ps 193 Alfred J Kennedy, Ps 129 Patricia Larkin performs generally worse, with lower proficiency rates and statewide rankings. However, the school performs better than some schools in other districts, such as Ps 69 Journey Prep School and Ps 182 in the New York City Geographic District # 8, which have lower proficiency rates and statewide rankings.
