Summary:

The 11568 zip code area is home to two high schools - Westbury High School and Wheatley School. While both serve grades 9-12, the data reveals stark differences in their performance and quality.

Wheatley School spends significantly more per student ($42,558) compared to Westbury High School ($35,159), and has a much lower student-teacher ratio of 8.3 versus 14.1. Both schools, however, share a concerning issue of high chronic absenteeism rates exceeding 31%.
