Summary

Brentwood High School is a large public high school in Brentwood, New York, serving 4,803 students in grades 9-12. While the school is part of the Brentwood Union Free School District, which is ranked 811 out of 874 districts in New York, Brentwood High School itself has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating its performance is below the state average.

Brentwood High School's student performance is consistently in the bottom half of New York high schools, typically ranking in the 600s out of over 1,200 schools. However, the school shows stronger results for certain student subgroups, such as ranking in the top 30% for African American and multi-racial students, and the top 50% for English Language Learners and homeless students. The school also has a 4-year graduation rate around 78-84%, which is below the state average, and a high chronic absenteeism rate ranging from 23-34% in recent years, significantly above the state norm. Brentwood High School's test scores on Regents exams are mixed, with some subjects performing well above the state average, while others lag significantly behind.

Compared to nearby high schools like West Islip Senior High School, Half Hollow Hills High School East, and North Babylon High School, Brentwood High School generally performs worse on key metrics. However, the school's high percentage of students (over 75%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch suggests it may face resource challenges that contribute to its academic struggles, and targeted support could help drive improvements in areas like attendance and uneven academic performance.
