Summary

Landing School is an elementary school located in Glen Cove, New York, serving grades 3-5 with a total enrollment of 360 students. It is part of the Glen Cove City School District, which is ranked 772 out of 874 school districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Over the past 10 years, Landing School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools, with a ranking between 1,489 and 2,039 out of around 2,400 schools.

Landing School's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates on New York State Assessments, is consistently lower than the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math ranged from 35.29% to 43.62%, compared to the state averages of 54.07% to 56.61% for the same grades and subjects. The school also struggles with Hispanic and English Language Learner (ELL) students, who rank in the bottom 25% of their respective statewide subgroups, as well as students with special needs, ranking in the bottom 5% of schools statewide for this subgroup.

Landing School has a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with over 60% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This is significantly higher than the nearby Gribbin School (56.01%) and Deasy School (52.38%), and much higher than the high-performing schools in the Port Washington and North Shore Central School Districts (around 12-19% free/reduced lunch). Despite its relatively high spending per student, at around $29,000 per student, Landing School has consistently struggled to improve student outcomes.
