Summary:

The 11542 zip code in New York is home to a single high school, Glen Cove High School, which serves grades 9-12. While the school has some positive attributes, such as a relatively low student-teacher ratio and high spending per student, its overall performance and metrics indicate room for improvement.

Glen Cove City School District ranks 772 out of 874 high schools in New York, with a low 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's 4-year graduation rate of 84.3% is slightly below the state average, and its dropout rate of 4.5% is higher than the state average. Additionally, the school faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5%, which can negatively impact student learning and academic performance.

Glen Cove High School's performance on Regents exams is mixed, with some subject areas exceeding the state average while others fall significantly behind. This suggests the school may need to focus on improving instruction and support in the weaker subject areas. Furthermore, with over 53% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the school serves a population with a relatively high level of economic disadvantage, which may be a contributing factor to its overall performance.
