Summary

Providing Urban Learners Success In Education High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in the Bronx, New York, with a student population of 174. The school is part of 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 in terms of student outcomes, with a 4-year graduation rate ranging from 20.1% to 85.6% over the past few years, which is quite variable and lower than the New York state average of around 80%. The school's dropout rate has ranged from 4.0% to 24.0% in recent years, higher than the state average, and it has had very high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 31.5% to 91.6%, significantly higher than the state and district averages. While the school outperforms on some Regents/Common Core exams like English Language Arts, it underperforms on others like Algebra I and Global History. Additionally, the school has an extremely high percentage of students (over 90%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a very low-income student population.

When compared to nearby schools like Crotona International High School and High School For Energy And Technology, Providing Urban Learners Success In Education High School generally performs worse on key metrics like test scores, graduation rates, and chronic absenteeism. Despite relatively high per-student spending and small class sizes, the school has struggled to consistently improve student achievement, suggesting the need to address the root causes of its variability in performance and implement effective strategies to support its predominantly low-income student population.
