Summary

The Marie Curie Institute Of Engineering And Communication is an elementary school in Amsterdam, NY, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 433 students. It is part of the Amsterdam City School District, which is ranked 826 out of 874 districts in New York and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school's academic performance on state assessments is generally below the state and district averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts (ELA) ranged from 43.94% (3rd grade) to 54.41% (4th grade), compared to the state averages of 54.15% (3rd grade) and 54.07% (4th grade). In mathematics, the proficiency rates ranged from 39.13% (5th grade) to 62.86% (4th grade), again lower than the state averages. The school's performance in science for 5th grade was also below the state average, with 32.35% proficient or better compared to 45.02% statewide. However, the school's ranking for Special Education students is relatively high, with a 4-star rating in the 2024-2025 school year.

Interestingly, some nearby schools outside the Amsterdam City School District, such as Charlton Heights Elementary School and Glendaal School, demonstrate significantly higher academic performance, with proficiency rates well above the state averages. The Marie Curie Institute Of Engineering And Communication's high rate of economic disadvantage, with 69.93% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in 2021-2022, may be a contributing factor to its lower academic performance compared to more affluent schools in the region.
