Summary:
Academy of the City Charter School is the sole elementary school in this data set, serving grades K-8 in New York. While the school has some strong academic performance in certain areas, its declining statewide ranking and uneven test scores suggest there may be room for improvement.
The school's statewide ranking has dropped significantly in recent years, going from 891 out of 2,439 New York elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 1,360 out of 2,445 in 2024-2025. Its academic performance is mixed, with the school outperforming the state average in 4th and 8th grade ELA as well as Algebra I Regents exams, but underperforming in 6th grade math and 5th grade science. At $18,521 per student, the school's spending is notably higher than the state average, though it's unclear if these resources are translating into improved student outcomes.
Despite serving an unusual grade span of K-8, Academy of the City Charter School appears to be facing some challenges. Its declining statewide ranking and uneven academic performance across grade levels and subjects indicate the need for further analysis to identify opportunities for improvement and better support student learning and achievement within the Academy of the City Charter School district.
