Levittown Union Free School District runs 67% of Levittown's public schools

Levittown touches 2 districts, but Levittown Union Free School District is the one most addresses actually attend.

Levittown Union Free School District accounts for 8 of 12 public schools (67%). The other 1 district holds the remaining 4.

Among 11 public schools with real test data, composite scores run from 4.5 to 8.2 — the spread is inside Levittown, not a citywide average.

About Schools in Levittown, New York

Levittown's public school system spans 12 ranked schools, with a city-wide average score of 7.7 out of 10. Eight of those 12 schools — 67% — score 7.0 or higher. That consistency is the defining characteristic here: parents are not navigating a system split between a few elite options and a weak majority. Nearly every school in Levittown performs above the midpoint.

Summit Lane School leads the city with a 9.2 out of 10, the top score among all 12 ranked schools. Gardiners Avenue School scores 8.8, and Michael F. Stokes School rounds out the top elementary tier at 8.4. All three are elementary schools, which tells parents something meaningful: Levittown's strongest academic results are concentrated in the early grades. Families with elementary-age children have genuinely competitive options, and the gaps between the top three are narrow enough that attendance zone boundaries may be the deciding factor.

The high school picture holds up. Island Trees High School scores 8.6 — well above the city average and one of the stronger results in the system. Division Avenue Senior High School follows at 7.9, also above the citywide mean. Parents with older students can expect solid academic environments at both campuses without having to rely on a single top-performing option.

For families doing side-by-side comparisons, Levittown's data is straightforward to read. The 7.7 average — backed by 67% of schools clearing the 7.0 threshold — reflects a system where strong performance is the norm, not the exception. Elementary families should prioritize the Summit Lane and Gardiners Avenue zones when evaluating home addresses; both deliver top-tier scores. For high school, Island Trees is the clear performance leader, though Division Avenue is a capable alternative. The district's compact footprint — 12 schools total — means most families will have at least one strong option within a short distance.
