Summary:
The 11542 zip code area in Glen Cove, New York is home to 6 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Glen Cove City School District. While the district as a whole is ranked 772 out of 874 in New York and rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger, there are a few standout schools worth highlighting.
Robert M Finley Middle School outperforms the district and state averages on several key metrics, including Regents exam proficiency rates in Living Environment and Algebra I, and has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.4. Additionally, Connolly School and Landing School, two of the elementary schools, have higher proficiency rates on the 3rd-5th grade New York State Assessments compared to the district and state averages in several subject areas.
However, the data also reveals some areas of concern, particularly at the high school level. Glen Cove High School has a 84.3% four-year graduation rate and a 4.5% dropout rate, which are areas for potential improvement. Additionally, the high school and middle school generally underperform the state averages on Regents and New York State Assessments, with proficiency rates often 10-20 percentage points below the state. The high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients across all schools also indicate significant economic challenges faced by the student population, which may be a contributing factor to the overall academic underperformance observed in the district.
