The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math are significantly higher than the district and state averages, and its 5th-grade Science proficiency rate also exceeds the district and state levels. The school's exceptional performance extends to supporting the academic achievement of traditionally underserved student subgroups, such as English Language Learners and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, who rank in the top 10% and top 7% of New York elementary schools, respectively.
