Summary

Stagecoach School is an elementary school located in Selden, New York, serving 362 students in grades K-5. It is part of the Middle Country Central School District, which is ranked 740 out of 874 school districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Stagecoach School has shown mixed academic performance compared to the state and district averages. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math were generally lower than the state and district averages, with the exception of 3rd-grade Math. The school's performance has fluctuated over the years, with higher proficiency rates in some past years. Additionally, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with the school performing relatively well for White students but struggling with lower rankings for Asian, Hispanic, and Special Education students.

Despite the relatively high spending per student, ranging from $21,239 in 2021-2022 to $30,199 in 2023-2024, and a low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 14.8 to 16 students per teacher, Stagecoach School's academic performance has not consistently reflected these investments. When compared to nearby schools in the Brookhaven-Comsewogue Union Free School District and the Longwood Central School District, Stagecoach School's performance is generally lower, with some exceptions. This suggests that the school may benefit from learning from the practices and strategies of higher-performing schools in the area.
