Summary

Bronx Collegiate Academy is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in the Bronx, New York, with 428 students. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #9, which is ranked 750 out of 874 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bronx Collegiate Academy has consistently ranked in the bottom 25% of New York high schools over the past 10 years, with 1-star or 2-star ratings from SchoolDigger. The school performs better for its African American and Hispanic student populations compared to the overall student body, but struggles with its male, white, English Language Learner, Special Education, and low socioeconomic status student populations. Bronx Collegiate Academy's four-year graduation rate has ranged from 73.2% to 88.4%, below the state average, and its dropout rate has ranged from 4.5% to 7.5%, higher than the state average. The school also has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 31.5% to 58.4%, significantly above the state average.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the same district, such as Dreamyard Preparatory School, Claremont International High School, and New Directions Secondary School, all have similar low rankings and performance metrics to Bronx Collegiate Academy, suggesting that the challenges faced by the school are not unique but are systemic issues within the broader New York City Geographic District #9.
