Summary

New Pathways Academy is a public middle school located in the Bronx, New York, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 168 students. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #9, which is ranked 750 out of 874 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

New Pathways Academy faces significant challenges in student academic achievement, with consistently low proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math compared to the district and state averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 14.29% of 6th-grade students were proficient in ELA, compared to 32.43% in the district and 50.86% statewide. However, the school's performance on Regents exams is more promising, with 84.62% of students proficient in Common Core English Language Arts and 75% proficient in Algebra I in 2024-2025. Additionally, the school's performance for English Language Learners and Special Education students is relatively stronger compared to other subgroups.

Compared to nearby schools, New Pathways Academy's performance is generally lower than schools like Is 219 New Venture School and Kappa, which have higher proficiency rates in ELA and Math. However, the school outperforms some other nearby schools, such as Junior High School 22 Jordan L Mott and South Bronx Academy For Applied Media, which have even lower proficiency rates. Despite these challenges, the school's per-student spending and small class sizes suggest a focus on providing additional resources and support to its students.
