Summary

Junior High School 143 Eleanor Roosevelt is a public middle school in New York, NY, serving 180 students in grades 6-8 and part of the New York City Geographic District #6.

The school consistently ranks in the bottom 10-15% of New York middle schools, with significantly below-average performance on state assessments across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in ELA and Math were around 20-40 percentage points lower than the district and state averages. The school's performance is particularly weak in 8th grade Math, with 0% proficiency in the 2024-2025 and 2023-2024 school years. While the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch and relatively high per-student spending, these resources do not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the same district generally perform better than Junior High School 143 Eleanor Roosevelt, with higher rankings and better academic outcomes. For example, Mott Hall School (The), located about 0.9 miles away, consistently ranks in the top 20-30% of New York middle schools and has significantly higher proficiency rates in ELA and Math. However, the nearby schools in a different district, New York City Geographic District #9, tend to perform similarly or slightly better than Junior High School 143 Eleanor Roosevelt, suggesting that the school's challenges may be more systemic within the broader district and community.
