McKenna Elementary consistently performs above the state and district averages in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency rates for grades 3-5. In the 2024-2025 school year, McKenna's 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate was 66.67%, compared to the district's 59.51% and the state's 54.15%. Similarly, their 3rd grade Math proficiency rate was 73.58%, compared to the district's 67.36% and the state's 59.7%. This trend continues across the other grade levels, with McKenna outperforming the district and state in both ELA and Science as well.

While McKenna performs well for most student subgroups, the lower performance of its White student subgroup is an area that may warrant further investigation and targeted support. However, the school's ability to maintain high levels of achievement for its Special Education and Low Socioeconomic Status students is commendable. When compared to other schools in the Massapequa district, McKenna consistently outperforms its peers in academic proficiency, likely due to its higher per-student spending and additional resources.
