Despite its proximity to several higher-performing schools like Columbia Secondary School and Frederick Douglass Academy, A Philip Randolph Campus High School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York high schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with African American and Homeless students performing relatively well, but Asian, White, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students performing below average. The school has also struggled with low graduation rates, ranging from 63.8% to 84.3% in recent years, and high chronic absenteeism rates, from 31.5% to 55.2%.

While the school's overall performance is below average, the data suggests that there may be opportunities to learn from and replicate the strategies that are working for certain student subgroups, such as African American and Homeless students. Additionally, the challenges faced by A Philip Randolph Campus High School appear to be systemic issues within the broader educational landscape of the area, as nearby charter schools like Democracy Preparatory Charter School and New Heights Academy Charter School also struggle with low test scores and graduation rates.
