Summary:
The 11510 zip code area is home to 8 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Baldwin Union Free School District, except for one elementary school that is part of the Uniondale Union Free School District. The data reveals a significant gap in academic performance between the top-performing schools, Plaza Elementary School and Steele Elementary School, and the lower-performing schools, such as Meadow Elementary School and Grand Avenue Elementary School.
Baldwin Senior High School stands out with strong performance on Regents exams, exceeding the district and state averages in most subject areas, and a 84.3% four-year graduation rate, which is above the state average. However, the school also faces a higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5%, which may require the district to explore strategies to address the root causes and support student attendance.
The data also reveals significant variation in per-student spending across the schools, ranging from $28,046 to $33,946, suggesting potential inequities in resource allocation within the district. Ensuring equitable funding and resources for all schools, regardless of their socioeconomic demographics, could be an area for the district to focus on to improve educational outcomes and opportunities for all students in the 11510 zip code area.
