Summary

Connolly School's academic performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better in New York State Assessments, is generally lower than the state average and the performance of the Glen Cove City School District. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools, with a ranking between 1,600 and 2,000 out of over 2,400 schools in recent years. This places it in the bottom 30-40% of elementary schools in the state. Connolly School's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Low Socioeconomic Status students struggling the most.

Connolly School's performance is significantly lower than that of nearby schools in the Roslyn Union Free School District and the North Shore Central School District, which consistently rank in the top 10-20% of New York elementary schools and have much higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math. The high percentage of students from low-income families and the relatively low ranking of the Glen Cove City School District may be contributing factors to Connolly School's academic struggles.
