Summary

Hampton Bays Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 665 students in grades K-4 in the Hampton Bays Union Free School District in Hampton Bays, New York. The school's academic performance has been mixed, with fluctuations in its statewide ranking and varying proficiency rates on state assessments compared to the state average.

While Hampton Bays Elementary spends significantly more per student ($30,415 in 2023-2024) than the state average, this higher spending does not appear to translate into consistently strong academic outcomes. The school's 3rd and 4th grade students scored below the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) but slightly above the state average in Math on the 2024-2025 assessments. Compared to nearby schools, Hampton Bays Elementary generally performs better than the Riverhead Central School District schools but lags behind higher-performing schools like Remsenburg-Speonk Elementary, Westhampton Beach Elementary, and Quogue Elementary.

The school faces some demographic challenges, with a relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds (61.2% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024) and a significant population of Hispanic students and English Language Learners. While the school's low student-teacher ratio of 10.9 in 2023-2024 suggests potential opportunities for targeted interventions and support, the district may need to closely examine its curriculum, teaching methods, and resource allocation to drive consistent improvements in academic performance.
