Summary:
The 11934 zip code area is home to 3 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Center Moriches Union Free School District. While the district's schools demonstrate some strengths, such as the high performance of Center Moriches High School, there are also areas for improvement, particularly at the middle school level.
Center Moriches High School stands out as the top-performing school in the area, ranking 421 out of 1,234 New York high schools and earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school boasts a relatively high graduation rate of 84.3% and low dropout rate of 4.5%, as well as strong performance on Regents exams, with high proficiency rates in subjects like English Language Arts, Global History, and U.S. History. In contrast, Center Moriches Middle School struggles, ranking in the bottom 20% of New York middle schools and performing poorly on state assessments, particularly in English Language Arts and Science.
Across the district, the schools demonstrate a significant investment in education, with spending per student ranging from $31,254 at Clayton Huey Elementary School to $34,034 at Center Moriches High School. However, the varying performance levels suggest that simply spending more may not be the sole solution to improving student outcomes. The district also serves a diverse student population, with free and reduced-price lunch rates ranging from 32.35% to 37.5% across the schools.
