Summary:
The 11766 zip code area is home to 3 schools that are part of the Mount Sinai Union Free School District, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The standout school in this area is the Robert M Grable Junior Mount Sinai High School, which has consistently ranked among the top 40-80 high schools in New York state and boasts impressive academic outcomes, with over 90% proficiency rates on most Regents exams, a 97.8% 4-year graduation rate, and a low 0.5% dropout rate.
The Mount Sinai school district as a whole is performing well, with the elementary and middle schools also demonstrating strong academic outcomes on state assessments. All three schools have a predominantly white student population, ranging from 76-77%, and relatively low percentages of students eligible for free/reduced-price lunch, ranging from 9-12%. The high school spends $21,050 per student, while the middle and elementary schools spend $17,116 and $20,412 per student, respectively, with relatively low student-teacher ratios ranging from 10.9 to 13 students per teacher.
The data suggests that the Mount Sinai school district is providing a quality education and effectively preparing students for success, particularly at the high school level. However, the relatively affluent student population raises questions about equity and access for students from lower-income backgrounds, and further analysis could explore the factors behind the district's success and investigate potential areas for improvement in this regard.
