Summary

North Country Road School is a public middle school located in Miller Place, New York, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 542 students. The school is part of the Miller Place Union Free School District, which is ranked 534 out of 874 school districts in New York and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

North Country Road School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York middle schools, with a ranking between 830-1076 out of 1500 schools over the past 5 years. The school's performance on state assessments is below the state and district averages, with proficiency rates ranging from 30-40% in English Language Arts and 28-63% in Math across grades 6-8. However, the school performs exceptionally well on Regents exams, with 100% proficiency rates in Earth Science and Algebra I, significantly higher than the state and district averages. The school struggles to serve certain student subgroups effectively, ranking in the bottom 25% of New York middle schools for male students, special education students, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, while performing better for Hispanic students.

Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of around $33,920 in the 2023-2024 school year and a low student-teacher ratio of around 10.5, the academic performance at North Country Road School remains inconsistent. While the school excels in certain areas, such as Regents exam performance, it struggles to provide a consistently high-quality education for all students, particularly those from underserved subgroups. Addressing these issues will be crucial for the school to improve its overall standing and better serve the needs of its diverse student population.
