Summary

Bronx Early College Academy For Teaching And Learning is a public high school serving grades 6-12 in the New York City Geographic District #9, which is ranked 750 out of 874 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has 415 students.

Bronx Early College Academy has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York high schools, with a ranking between 691-1016 out of 1190-1242 schools over the past several years. Its performance on state assessments and Regents exams is generally below the district and state averages. The school's 4-year graduation rate has ranged from 73.2% to 92.3% in recent years, which is mixed compared to the district and state, and its dropout rate has been between 4.5% to 7.5%, which is higher than the state average. Bronx Early College Academy has also struggled with high chronic absenteeism, ranging from 31.5% to 58.4% in recent years, significantly above the district and state averages.

While Bronx Early College Academy performs similarly or slightly better than other nearby public high schools in the same district, such as Bronx School For Law Government And Justice and Bronx Leadership Academy II High School, it lags behind charter schools like NYC Charter High School - AECI and AECI II: NYC Charter High School, which have higher academic performance and graduation rates. The school's performance on state assessments and Regents exams has been inconsistent from year to year, and with a relatively high per-student spending of around $25,000-$29,000 in recent years, the school does not appear to be maximizing its resources to drive better student outcomes.
