Summary

C E Walters School is an elementary school in Yaphank, New York, serving 806 students in grades K-4 as part of the Longwood Central School District. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools over the past decade, with below-average performance on state assessments.

C E Walters School faces significant challenges, including low academic performance across all student subgroups. While White and Special Education students perform relatively better, African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students rank in the bottom half or bottom third of their respective subgroups statewide. The school also has a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with around 50% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite relatively high per-student spending, the school's performance remains below average, suggesting that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution to improving academic outcomes.

When compared to nearby schools within the Longwood Central School District, such as Ridge Elementary, Coram Elementary, and West Middle Island School, C E Walters School's performance is similar or slightly worse, suggesting that the district-wide challenges may be contributing to the low performance. Compared to schools in the neighboring Patchogue-Medford and Sachem Central School Districts, C E Walters School and the Longwood Central School District appear to be underperforming across the board.
