Summary

Hendy Avenue School is an elementary school in Elmira, New York, serving grades 3-6 with a total enrollment of 381 students. The school is part of the Elmira City School District, which is ranked 833 out of 874 school districts in New York and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Hendy Avenue School has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of New York elementary schools over the past decade, with a current ranking of 2210 out of 2445 schools for the 2024-2025 school year.

Hendy Avenue School consistently underperforms compared to the Elmira City School District and the state of New York in terms of proficiency rates on the New York State Assessments. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math ranged from 15-40%, while the district and state averages were significantly higher, often exceeding 50%. The school also struggles to support the academic achievement of various student subgroups, with particularly low rankings for African American, Hispanic, and low socioeconomic status students, as well as for special education students.

Despite the high per-student spending at Hendy Avenue School, ranging from $9,252 to $22,668 over the past few years, the school has not shown significant improvement in its academic performance or statewide rankings over the past decade. In comparison, Broadway Elementary School, another school in the Elmira City School District, consistently outperforms Hendy Avenue School in both ELA and Math proficiency rates, as well as in overall statewide rankings. This suggests that Hendy Avenue School may need to re-evaluate its instructional strategies, resource allocation, and support systems to better address the needs of its students and improve educational outcomes.
