Summary

World Journalism Preparatory: A College Board School is a public high school located in Flushing, New York, serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 626 students. As a New York City Geographic District #25 school, it has consistently outperformed the district and state in various Regents exams and state assessments, particularly in subjects like Global History and Geography, U.S. History and Government, and Common Core English Language Arts.

The school's four-year graduation rate, ranging from 79.4% to 94.5% in recent years, is comparable to the district and state averages. However, the school's dropout rate, ranging from 2.1% to 4.9%, is higher than the district and state. Additionally, World Journalism Preparatory has a higher chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 31.5% to 42.5%, compared to the district and state, which is an area of concern that the school may need to address.

When compared to other nearby high schools, such as John Bowne High School, Flushing International High School, and Queens High School for Language Studies, World Journalism Preparatory generally performs better in terms of test scores and graduation rates, but struggles with higher chronic absenteeism. The school's specialized curriculum and access to resources may contribute to its academic success, but the school also faces challenges in ensuring equitable outcomes for all student subgroups.
