Summary

Amityville Memorial High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in the Amityville Union Free School District, with an enrollment of 953 students. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of New York high schools over the past 10 years, with a current ranking of 822 out of 1,234 high schools and a 2 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger.

Amityville Memorial High School's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups. While the school ranks 287 out of 713 New York high schools for African American students and 461 out of 885 for Hispanic students, it ranks much lower for White students (561 out of 788) and Multi-racial students (224 out of 328). The school's 4-year graduation rate has fluctuated between 73.8% and 84.3%, which is below the state average, and its dropout rate has been higher than average, ranging from 4.4% to 7.4%. Additionally, Amityville Memorial High School has a very high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 26.1% to 34.1% over the past few years, significantly above the state average.

Compared to nearby high-performing schools such as Wantagh Senior High School, Babylon Junior-Senior High School, and Massapequa High School, Amityville Memorial High School performs significantly worse across a range of metrics, including statewide rankings, graduation rates, test scores, and chronic absenteeism. Despite relatively high spending per student and a low student-teacher ratio, the school's academic outcomes suggest that factors beyond just staffing and funding may be contributing to its underperformance.
