Summary

Community Math And Science Prep is a public middle school located in New York, NY, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 131 students. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #6, which is ranked 642 out of 874 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Community Math And Science Prep consistently underperforms compared to the district and state in academic proficiency, with significantly lower proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math across all grade levels. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Hispanic and English Language Learner students performing relatively better, while female, male, African American, special education, and low socioeconomic status students rank in the bottom quartile of New York middle schools. Despite increased spending per student, from $31,840 in 2020-2021 to $51,098 in 2023-2024, the school's academic outcomes have not improved.

The challenges faced by Community Math And Science Prep are not unique, as nearby schools such as Junior High School 143 Eleanor Roosevelt, Is 528 Bea Fuller Rodgers School, and Middle School 319 Marie Teresa also struggle with low academic performance and are ranked in the bottom half of New York middle schools. This suggests that the challenges may be systemic within the New York City Geographic District #6. Addressing the underlying factors, such as the socioeconomic status of the student population, and identifying and scaling effective practices could be crucial in improving the school's overall performance.
