Summary

Westhampton Beach Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 332 students in grades K-5 in the Westhampton Beach Union Free School District, located in Westhampton Beach, New York. The school consistently performs above the state average on New York State Assessments across grades 3-5 in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math, with 75.93% of 5th graders proficient or better in ELA and 68.52% proficient or better in Math, compared to state averages of 56.61% and 54.16%, respectively.

While the school excels for its White student subgroup, ranking in the top 25% of New York elementary schools in this category, it struggles more with its English Language Learner (ELL) student subgroup, ranking in the bottom 25% of New York elementary schools for this group. The school's high spending per student, ranging from $24,222 to $67,869 over the past few years, and low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 7.0 to 7.6, suggest it is investing significant resources into its educational program, which may contribute to its strong academic performance.

Compared to nearby schools, such as East Quogue School and Quogue Elementary School, which also demonstrate strong academic results, Westhampton Beach Elementary School generally outperforms these schools in academic metrics. This suggests the school is providing a high-quality education to its students, but it also raises questions about the cost-effectiveness of the school's approach and the need to focus more on supporting its ELL subgroup to ensure all students are achieving at high levels.
