Connetquot High School, Bohemia NY

Original Research by School Decision on Connetquot High School

Connetquot High School serves grades nine through twelve in Bohemia, a commercial and industrial hamlet in Suffolk County anchored by Long Island MacArthur Airport and supply-chain businesses including North Atlantic Industries, vitamin and supplement distribution, and logistics operations. The school draws from a residential base mixed with these employment centers, a setting that shapes both the town character and the peer environment students experience.

The school enrolls a diverse student body. About two-thirds of students are white, with a substantial Hispanic student population, and smaller shares of Asian, Black, and multiracial students. Just under a third of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating moderate economic diversity. These figures reflect the broader Long Island middle-class suburban profile, though with notable economic variation within the enrollment. The school has not reported data on students with IEPs or English learners, so a parent would want to ask the school directly about special-education services and ELL programming if those are relevant.

Bohemia's housing market sits solidly in the upper-middle range for the region. Home values in the zip code have held steady and appreciated modestly year over year, with median listing prices in the mid-range and median days on market shortening noticeably. This is a market where homes move reasonably quickly and inventory has improved somewhat. The affordability picture assumes a household income somewhat above national median; mortgage payments as a share of income run higher than national norms, reflecting Long Island's overall cost structure. For families considering the district, housing costs are substantial but not at the peak end of the county, and the market shows signs of modest seller activity.

State assessment data for Connetquot High School was not available in the sources reviewed, so a clear picture of proficiency in English language arts, mathematics, or other tested subjects cannot be drawn here. The same gap applies to four-year graduation rates and chronic absenteeism, which are either not reported at the school level in the state's public data or not present in the materials provided. A parent evaluating the school's academic performance should request these metrics directly from the district or consult the New York State Education Department's school report cards, which will carry the detail needed to make an informed comparison with other Long Island high schools.

The district itself has recently made two parent-relevant moves. Voters approved a capital bond in 2025 with improvements to facilities across the district, structured so that new borrowing replaces retiring debt from prior projects, meaning the district states the initiative will not raise property taxes. This is a multi-year commitment to building upgrades that will unfold over time. The district has also passed budgets consistently at its allowable tax-cap ceiling, with the most recent budget increasing the tax levy at that limit. For families considering the area, this signals steady tax pressure on property owners, a dynamic typical of many Long Island districts and worth factoring into long-term housing costs.

Connetquot High School is a regular public high school in a working and middle-class community with stable housing, a mixed industrial and residential character, and reasonable proximity to employment in sectors anchored by aviation and distribution. Without state testing or graduation data available, a prospective parent or student should reach directly to the high school or district office to discuss academic offerings, course selection, support services, and how recent bond and budget decisions will shape facility conditions over the coming years.

Graduation rate (ACGR) reflects the federally published Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate for the most recent year available. We refresh this data annually at the close of each academic year in June. The federal source publishes a banded rate (for example, "90-94%") instead of an exact number for cohorts small enough to risk identifying individual students. The state distribution chart, where shown, plots every school in the state with a published rate or band; schools whose rate is federally suppressed are excluded. Where the federal source publishes a band rather than an exact rate, the school is placed within its band using a stable, ID-derived offset, so its position is consistent across visits.
