Summary:

Island Park Lincoln Orens Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 5-8 in the Island Park Union Free School District, with 271 students. The school district as a whole is ranked 716 out of 865 districts in New York and is rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and increased per-student spending in recent years, its academic performance has been inconsistent. The school's proficiency rates on state assessments in English Language Arts and Math range from 31-52%, generally below the state averages. However, the school performs better on Regents exams, with 100% proficiency in Algebra I and 70% proficiency in Living Environment, exceeding the state averages. The school's diverse student population includes a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, and its performance varies significantly by student subgroup, with Hispanic and Special Education students outperforming their White and female counterparts.

The school's location in close proximity to several higher-performing middle schools, such as South Side Middle School and Woodmere Middle School, may contribute to the relatively low performance of Island Park Lincoln Orens Middle School. Despite the school's access to significant resources, it will need to carefully examine its instructional practices and strategies for addressing the unique needs of its diverse student population to improve student outcomes.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
