Summary

Collegiate Institute For Math And Science is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in the Bronx, New York, with a student population of 526. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #11, which is ranked 627 out of 874 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Collegiate Institute For Math And Science has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York high schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger for most years. The school performs better for African American and Hispanic students compared to Asian and White students, but struggles with English Language Learner and Special Education students. Its 4-year graduation rate is around 84%, on par with nearby schools like Bronx High School For The Visual Arts, High School Of Computers And Technology, and Pelham Preparatory Academy. Collegiate Institute For Math And Science performs below the district and state averages on most Regents exams, particularly in math and science subjects.

The school's high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, along with its relatively high student-teacher ratio, suggest a high-need student population. While the school faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education, especially in math and science, it shows potential strengths in the humanities that could be leveraged. Addressing equity concerns and optimizing resource allocation could be important steps in improving the school's performance and outcomes for its students.

If you're a parent who cares about your child's well-being, please don't send your kid to this school. If you're an educator looking for a new place of employment, please don't come to this school. Don't be fooled by this school's past achievements because they are from a previews administration with excellent teachers who is now long gone. The current administration is the worst of the worst and if you're no of their liking they will make you quit anyways, so please, don't even waste your precious time and energy messing with this school.

Im going to junior year, it being my 3rd year in the school. For the pass two years this school has been falling apart. And it's only going to get worse. Lots of the good teachers are leaving and im pretty positive its not because their being fired but because they quit themselves. I feel like this has to do a lot with the student body. Alot of these kids are very rude disrespectful and treat teachers like straight up shit. Students who actually want to learn, including myself can't learn because of the horrible behavior of the students. And it does nothing to motivate me or help me and for this i blame a little for my struggles in classes. Right now I'm just trying to pass so I can hopefully get to college. If you want your child to be in a diverse educational environemt, I would not suggest this school. I wouldn't be suprised if the school was closing down in a coupple of years. Hopefully they're replacing the loss of teachers, if not with the same experience and teaching level, then more than what we had before for my junior year. Close Quote

CIMS prepared me for college and helped me to acquire a full scholarship to one of the top liberal arts colleges in the nation. The faculty genuinely cares about their students and this fosters a safe environment for learning. CIMS is by far one of, if not the, best public high schools in the Bronx. Close Quote

What is going on with this school? It started with very good scores from regents, but every year, the result is declining. I was so happy to find a school doing so good in my neighborhood and suddenly the school is changing for the worse. I even chose this school for my kids who are now in 7 and 8 grade. Well, I have changed my mind now. Close Quote
