Summary

Coram Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 959 students in grades K-4 in the Longwood Central School District in Coram, New York. While the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools over the past decade, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, there are some interesting insights to consider.

Academically, Coram Elementary School's performance on state assessments is significantly below the state and district averages. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 48.47% of 3rd graders and 37.99% of 4th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state averages of 54.15% and 54.07%, respectively. In math, the proficiency rates were 46.43% for 3rd grade and 36.52% for 4th grade, again lagging behind the state averages of 59.7% and 58.64%. The school's performance also varies across different student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 25% of New York elementary schools for White, English Language Learner, and Low Socioeconomic Status students, but performing better for African American and Hispanic students.

Despite the academic challenges, Coram Elementary School has relatively high spending per student, at $31,559 per student in the 2023-2024 school year, which is higher than the state average. When compared to nearby schools, such as Boyle Road Elementary School and Terryville Road School in the Brookhaven-Comsewogue Union Free School District, Coram Elementary School generally performs worse academically. This suggests that factors beyond just resources, such as instructional practices, teacher quality, and school climate, may be contributing to the school's academic challenges.
