Summary

Bronx Theatre High School is a public high school serving 227 students in grades 9-12 in the New York City Geographic District #10, which is ranked 708 out of 874 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school faces significant challenges, with consistently low academic performance on Regents/Common Core exams, a graduation rate ranging from 84.3% to 90.6% in recent years (lower than the state average), and a very high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5% to 58.7%. Additionally, the school's performance varies greatly among different student subgroups, with proficiency rates as low as 0% for Hispanic and English Language Learner students. Despite relatively high spending per student, ranging from $18,078 to $41,061 in recent years, the school's outcomes have not improved.

Interestingly, the nearby schools, such as Marie Curie High School-Nursing, Riverdale/Kingsbridge Academy, and Bronx Engineering And Technology Academy, generally perform better than Bronx Theatre High School on academic metrics, graduation rates, and chronic absenteeism, suggesting that the challenges faced by Bronx Theatre High School may be unique to the school itself, rather than the broader district or geographic area.
