Summary:
The New York City Geographic District #24 contains 8 middle schools serving grades 5-8, located in the Queens borough of New York City. The schools in this district serve predominantly low-income communities, with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Among the schools, IS 73 Frank Sansivieri Intermediate School (The) stands out as the highest-performing, ranked 515 out of 1,500 New York middle schools in 2024-2025. This school consistently achieves strong proficiency rates on state assessments, with over 50% of students proficient in ELA and Math across grade levels, and a 100% proficiency rate on the Regents Algebra I exam. Another high-performing school is IS 5 Walter Crowley Intermediate School (The), ranked 668 out of 1,500, with particularly strong results in 7th grade Math and high proficiency rates on Regents exams.
In contrast, some schools in the district, such as Corona Arts And Sciences Academy and PS 419, have significantly lower proficiency rates on state assessments, often below 30%. This suggests a need for targeted interventions and support to address the achievement gap within New York City Geographic District #24.
