Summary

Sleepy Hollow Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in North Tarrytown, NY, with 605 students. The school is part of the Union Free School District of the Tarrytowns, which is ranked 506 out of 874 school districts in New York and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Sleepy Hollow Middle School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, dropping from a high of 398 out of 1,479 New York middle schools in 2021-2022 to 766 out of 1,500 in 2024-2025. Its performance on state assessments is also below the state average, with proficiency rates ranging from 43.96% to 53.4% in ELA and Math. The school's academic performance lags behind many of the nearby high-performing middle schools, such as Ardsley Middle School, Dobbs Ferry Middle School, and Briarcliff Middle School, which are all ranked in the top 10% of New York middle schools.

Despite spending significantly more per student ($31,898 in 2023-2024) compared to the state average, Sleepy Hollow Middle School's academic performance does not seem to be commensurate with the resources invested. The school also has significant achievement gaps between different student subgroups, with White and Multi-racial students performing relatively well, while Hispanic and English Language Learner students perform poorly. Addressing these issues will likely require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to improve educational outcomes for all students.
