Lynbrook South Middle School

Summary:

Lynbrook South Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in the Lynbrook Union Free School District, with 388 students. The school consistently performs above the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency, and its students excel in Regents exams, with 100% proficiency in Earth Science, Living Environment, and Algebra I.

Lynbrook South Middle School's academic performance is particularly noteworthy for specific student subgroups, such as African American students, who ranked 84th out of 705 New York middle schools in 2023-2024. However, the school's performance for other subgroups, like White and low socioeconomic status students, is more variable. Over the past 10 years, the school has consistently ranked in the top 25% of New York middle schools, with a peak ranking of 91st out of 1,401 schools in 2013-2014, though its statewide ranking has since declined to 679th in 2023-2024.

Compared to nearby middle schools, such as South Side Middle School in Rockville Centre, Lynbrook South Middle School generally outperforms its peers in academic measures. The school's high per-student spending ($19,241 in 2022-2023) and low student-teacher ratio (9.8 in 2022-2023) may contribute to its academic success, though other nearby schools, like South Side Middle School, also demonstrate strong academic performance.

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.
