Summary

Westbury Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in the Westbury Union Free School District, with 988 students. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of New York middle schools over the past 10 years, with a 1 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger.

Westbury Middle School significantly underperforms the state and district averages on standardized tests across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, only 34.06% of 6th graders were proficient in ELA compared to the state average of 50.86%, and in math, the proficiency rates were even lower, with only 23.57% of 6th graders, 32.86% of 7th graders, and 26.32% of 8th graders meeting proficiency standards. The school struggles to support the academic achievement of its diverse student population, with Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Special Education students all ranking in the bottom half or bottom third of New York middle schools in their respective subgroups. Westbury Middle School has very high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 61.35% to 67.17% over the past 3 years, indicating a high concentration of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

Westbury Middle School lags far behind many of the higher-performing middle schools in the surrounding districts, such as Mineola Middle School, Herricks Middle School, Garden City Middle School, Jericho Middle School, and Roslyn Middle School, which consistently outperform Westbury Middle School on state assessments and have much higher percentages of students meeting proficiency standards. However, Westbury Middle School's students perform relatively better on Regents exams, with proficiency rates exceeding 65% in Living Environment, U.S. History and Government, and Algebra I, suggesting the school may be better equipped to prepare students for the more rigorous Regents curriculum.
