Summary

South Bronx International Middle School is a public middle school serving 159 students in grades 6-8 in the Bronx, New York, which is part of the New York City Geographic District #9.

The school faces significant challenges in academic performance, with consistently low proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and mathematics compared to the district and state averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 24.59% to 37.5% in ELA and 30.3% to 60.94% in mathematics across grades 6-8, while the district and state averages were higher. The school's performance in science assessments was particularly low, with only 18.46% of 8th-grade students proficient in 2024-2025. However, the school performed exceptionally well in the Regents Algebra I exam, with 100% of students proficient in 2024-2025, significantly higher than the district and state averages.

Nearby schools, such as Is 219 New Venture School, Kappa, and New Millennium Bronx Academy of the Arts, generally performed better than South Bronx International Middle School in academic assessments, but they also serve a high-poverty student population with similar resource levels.
