Our School is I feel a very good , great school because the parents and faculty are so involved, with the kids at school, one on one. most teachers live in the district and the parents are always invited to participate in everything they would like to, book fair fundraiser, moving up dances, field trips, or painting the windows in town for the holidays. well the teaching is great also everybody is always concerned about your child and there academics and what they have to do to improve it for the future. This is why I feel our school is great! Thank You Corina Svendsen

I love that our school is small enough, that for the most part, all the teachers know all the students. It's an environment where everyone is looking out for one another. The parents (and the community) work together with the school district for the betterment of the students and their education.

Our children are lucky to be here. The dedicated staff is not afraid to teach 'creatively' in order to get optimum results from Peter, Tommy, Abigail, Bella and every other individual child there. Clayton Huey Elementary School is the best kept secret!

About the tests


In 2011-2012 New York used the New York State Assessments to test students in grades 3 through 8 in English language arts and math, and in grades 4 and 8 in science. The results for English language arts and math are displayed on GreatSchools profiles and the science results will be added when they are released in the Fall of 2013. The tests are standards-based, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of New York. The goal is for 90% of students to meet or exceed grade-level standards on the tests.
