Summary

Bronx Stem And Arts Academy (The) is an elementary school serving grades PK-5 in the Bronx, New York, with 157 students. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #10, which is ranked 708 out of 874 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bronx Stem And Arts Academy (The) has consistently been ranked in the bottom 25% of New York elementary schools over the past 10 years, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in ELA, math, and science are significantly lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 0% of 3rd graders were proficient in ELA, compared to 54.15% statewide. The school's performance has been consistently low, with proficiency rates often in the single digits or low teens.

While the school serves a high-need population, with a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, it has a relatively high ranking for low socioeconomic status students, suggesting it may be doing a better job of supporting these students compared to its overall academic performance. However, the school's higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratio compared to nearby schools, such as PS 32 Belmont, PS 3 Raul Julia Micro Society, and PS 59 Community School Of Technology (The), which also have low performance and rankings, have not translated into improved academic outcomes. In contrast, some nearby schools, like PS 67 Mohegan School and Cardinal McCloskey Community Charter School, perform significantly better, with higher proficiency rates and rankings in the top 50% of New York elementary schools.
