Best High Schools in New York for White Students

Check out our new feature available only on SchoolDigger: rankings for different groups of students in New York!

Every year, the NY State Education Department shares test results for various student groups in each school. We use these results to find out which schools do best for each group and list them from the best to the worst.

Additionally, we also compare the performance of the subgroup to the performance of the school as a whole. This makes it easy to see if, for example, White students are overperforming or underperforming their peers in each school.

Year after year, SchoolDigger is always the first to publish New York test scores and rankings. Other sites use stale test score data that are several years old! Be in the know with the very latest performance metrics.

Alert! We are expecting the release of this year's test scores by the NY State Education Department any day now! We will update our rankings as soon as they are released!

Alert! New test scores and rankings are expected from the NY State Education Department any day now!
