Summary:
The 11931 zip code is home to a single public elementary school, Aquebogue Elementary School, which serves grades K-5 with a total enrollment of 474 students. The school is part of the Riverhead Central School District, which is ranked 760 out of 865 school districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Aquebogue Elementary School's statewide ranking among New York elementary schools has fluctuated significantly over the past three years, ranging from 1028 out of 2445 schools (3 stars) in 2023-2024 to 1823 out of 2439 schools (1 star) in 2022-2023. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math for 3rd and 4th grades have also varied, with the 2023-2024 school year showing stronger performance compared to the district and state averages, while the 2022-2023 school year saw lower proficiency rates. This inconsistency in academic achievement may be an area of concern.
Despite the school's relatively high spending of $21,943 per student, which is significantly higher than the state average, nearly 40% of Aquebogue Elementary School's students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting the school may be serving a population with socioeconomic challenges that could impact academic performance. The school's student-teacher ratio of 10.3 to 1 in the 2022-2023 school year is also noteworthy.
