Summary

Millenium Art Academy is a public magnet high school located in the Bronx, New York, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 331. 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.

Millenium Art Academy has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of New York high schools, maintaining a 1-2 star rating from SchoolDigger over the past 10 years. The school struggles to serve certain student subgroups effectively, with its rankings for female, male, low socioeconomic status, and homeless students all in the bottom quarter of New York high schools. However, the school performs better for African American and Hispanic students, ranking in the middle third of schools in those categories.

Millenium Art Academy's proficiency rates on Regents/Common Core exams are generally well below the state and district averages across subject areas, particularly in Algebra I, Algebra II, and Living Environment. The school's four-year graduation rate has fluctuated between 69-90% in recent years, with a dropout rate ranging from 4.5-10.8%. Despite its high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio, the school's academic performance challenges suggest that resource allocation alone may not be the primary driver of its struggles. Nearby schools in the same district generally perform at a similar level, serving high proportions of economically disadvantaged students.
