As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

I loved this school for my child! Close Quote

by a student
Saturday, October 2, 2010

I went to this school from 2007 to 2010 and I have to say that I believe that this is the best middle school district two can offer. You instantly make new friends, connect with your teachers, and everyone is always trying to help you learn and be successful. Enough kids got into specialized schools (Such as Bronx Science, Stuyvesant, Brooklyn Tech, LaGuardia) that it wasn't even a surprise if you found out that someone got into Stuyvesant. The scores on the SHSAT were extremely high too, as I have friends who got 617 and 623. You also shouldn't judge this school based on how much homework you will get, because even though it may seem like a lot, it's totally fair and challenging. If someone were to get behind anyone can help, as we have such a nice learning environment. I've also heard that people think that this school will end up really boring because we're a whole bunch of nerds, but it's really not. I mean, the nerds part is true, but we have tons of fun.
I say, from what I heard (which may not have been much), about 30-40 kids got into Stuyvesant, 15-20 kids got into Bronx Science, 20ish kids got into Brooklyn Tech and about 20 got into LaGuardia, for arts, acting and vocal. This is out of 200 per grade, and those who didn't go to specialized schools either went to private schools or schools such as the Lab High School, Beacon, Eleanor Roosevelt and Bard High School Early College, which are all excellent schools.

ANOTHER NOTE: Right now I go to Bronx Science with multiple friends in Brooklyn Tech and Stuyvesant. After hearing from them, I've realized that this school's foreign language department is extremely strong. Though we only take spanish, our teachers exceed the requirements before the profeciency exam we have at the end of our eighth grade year. I know this because I talk to people who are in the same spanish class as I have and they got similar scores on the profeciency and yet I far surpass their spanish speaking, writing, and reading skills. This is also the case for my other Labbie friends. I just had to add that.

I HIGHLY recommend this school for your child, I had tons of fun, and am happy that I went there :] Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
