Summary

Ps 3 Charrette School is a high-performing elementary school in New York City's District 2, serving 544 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. The school has consistently ranked among the top elementary schools in New York State, earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger in the 2024-2025 school year.

Ps 3 Charrette School stands out for its exceptional academic performance, consistently outpacing the New York City District 2 and the state of New York in standardized test scores across all grade levels. The school also maintains a low student-teacher ratio of 12.4, which may contribute to its success. Additionally, the school's per-student spending of $34,886 in the 2023-2024 school year is significantly higher than the nearby schools in the analysis.

While Ps 3 Charrette School's overall performance is exceptional, the data suggests some areas for potential improvement, such as the lower performance of specific student subgroups. The school's ability to effectively serve a diverse student population, including strong performance for Asian, African American, and multi-racial students, is noteworthy. However, the school may benefit from further analysis and targeted interventions to address the needs of other subgroups, such as Hispanic students and English Language Learners.

I think PS3 is a solid school. It has a real sense of community. Teaching quality is great and they pay attention to more than just academics.Their facilities can use updating. There is only so much PTA can do. That said, PS3 delivers where it matters most. Close Quote
