Summary:
The Miller Place Union Free School District consists of 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students in the Miller Place area. The district demonstrates a mix of academic performance, with its high school standing out as a strong performer and the lower grade levels showing more varied results.
Miller Place High School is the standout in the district, consistently achieving high proficiency rates on Regents exams, particularly in subjects like Algebra II, English Language Arts, and U.S. History and Government. The school also boasts a strong 84.3% graduation rate and a low 4.9% dropout rate, ranking among the top 174 high schools in New York state. In contrast, the district's North Country Road School middle school shows exceptional performance on specific Regents exams, such as 100% proficiency in Earth Science and Algebra I, but its overall statewide ranking is in the lower half of New York middle schools.
The elementary schools, Sound Beach School and Andrew Muller Primary School, have more mixed performance on state assessments, with some grades and subjects falling below the district and state averages. However, the district as a whole appears to allocate significant resources to its schools, with high per-student spending and favorable student-teacher ratios, which may contribute to the strong performance observed at the high school level.
