Summary
English Language Learners-Inter Supp is a public high school located in the Bronx, New York, serving grades 9-12 with 216 students. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #10, which is ranked 715 out of 865 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
English Language Learners-Inter Supp faces significant challenges, with a 4-year graduation rate ranging from 50% to 85.6% over the past few years, lower than the state average of around 80%. The school also has much higher dropout rates, ranging from 4.3% to 32.9%, compared to the state average of around 6%. Chronic absenteeism is a major issue, with rates ranging from 34.1% to 55.9%, much higher than the state average of around 20%. The school's proficiency rates on Regents/Common Core exams are generally lower than the district and state averages, particularly in subjects like Algebra I, English Language Arts, and Global History. Additionally, the school has a very high percentage of students (over 90%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-need student population.
Interestingly, the school performs similarly to other nearby public high schools in the district, such as Marie Curie High School-Nursing, Riverdale/Kingsbridge Academy, and Bronx Theatre High School, all of which have low statewide rankings and struggle with graduation rates, test scores, and chronic absenteeism. While the school's spending per student has increased over the years, from $20,308 in 2019-2020 to $32,469 in 2021-2022, this has not yet translated into improved student outcomes. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 7 to 9.3 students per teacher, suggests that the challenges it faces are likely more systemic in nature.
