About West New York School District
West New York keeps students in the elementary stage longer than many nearby districts. Its six regular K–6 schools include Public Schools 1, 2, and 5; Robert Menendez Elementary School (PS#3); Albio Sires Elementary School (PS#4); and Harry L. Bain School. The first citywide secondary move occurs at grade seven.
All regular students then attend West New York Middle School for grades seven and eight and Memorial High School for grades nine through twelve. The middle-school period lasts only two years, while the elementary assignment shapes most of a child’s K–8 experience.
Preschool is administered through a wider placement network. The early-childhood program serves resident three- and four-year-olds in district classrooms, annex space, Head Start, and approved provider sites. That location is an early-childhood placement, not a feeder promise for kindergarten or the later K–6 school.
