Summary:

The 11239 zip code area has only one elementary school, PS 346 Abe Stark, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The school is located within the New York City Geographic District #19.

PS 346 Abe Stark has shown mixed performance on state assessments over the past two years. In 2024-2025, the school outperformed the district and state averages in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math for most grade levels. However, in 2023-2024, the school's proficiency rates were lower than the district and state in several subjects and grade levels. The school's 5th-grade science proficiency rate was significantly lower than the district and state averages in both 2023-2024 and 2024-2025.

The school serves a student population with significant socioeconomic challenges, with 86.7% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024. Despite these challenges, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.5, and its per-student spending is relatively high at $42,581 for the 2023-2024 school year. These resources may be used to provide additional support and interventions to address the unique needs of the student body and improve academic outcomes.
