Summary

PS 130 Abram Stevens Hewitt is an elementary school located in the Bronx, New York, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 298 students. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #8, which is ranked 731 out of 874 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, PS 130 has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math that are below the district and state averages. The school's performance is particularly low for 5th-grade Math (21% proficient) and Science (23% proficient). However, the school performs better relative to other schools in the state for its Hispanic and English Language Learner student subgroups. Despite the school's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (92-93% receive free or reduced-price lunch) and increased per-student spending in recent years, its academic outcomes continue to lag behind the district and state averages.

Interestingly, two nearby charter schools, Storefront Academy Charter School and Brilla Veritas Charter School, significantly outperform PS 130 and the other nearby district schools on academic measures, despite serving a similarly disadvantaged student population. This suggests that factors such as school leadership, instructional practices, and school culture may play a role in driving student success, in addition to resource levels.
