Innovation Diploma Plus

Summary:

Innovation Diploma Plus is a public high school located in New York City's District #3, serving grades 10-12 with a total enrollment of 107 students. Unfortunately, this school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Innovation Diploma Plus over the past decade, with a 0 or 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating that it is performing significantly below the state average on various academic metrics.

The school's academic performance is a major concern, with consistently lower proficiency rates on Regents/Common Core exams compared to the district and state averages, a lower four-year graduation rate, and a higher dropout rate. Additionally, Innovation Diploma Plus serves a student population that is predominantly from low-income backgrounds, with a higher proportion of Hispanic students, English Language Learners, and students with disabilities, all of whom perform below the district and state averages.

While the school has a relatively low student-to-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending, it has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, which may be a contributing factor to its overall academic underperformance. Interestingly, nearby schools in District #3, such as High School For Law Advocacy And Community Justice, High School Of Arts And Technology, and Manhattan/Hunter Science High School, generally outperform Innovation Diploma Plus on academic metrics, graduation rates, and other key indicators, suggesting that addressing the school's performance gaps could be a key focus area for improvement.

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.

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.
