Summary

Bronx Latin School is a public high school serving grades 6-12 in the Bronx, New York, with 483 students. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #12, which is ranked 760 out of 874 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bronx Latin School consistently underperforms compared to the district and state averages on standardized tests, with only 27.91% of 6th graders proficient in ELA compared to 31.16% in the district and 50.86% statewide. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 31.5% to 58.7% in recent years, and a 4-year graduation rate of 84.3% with a dropout rate of 4.5%. Bronx Latin School performs particularly poorly for Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Special Education students, ranking in the bottom 25% of New York high schools for these subgroups.

While Bronx Latin School spends significantly more per student than the state average, at $31,868 per student, this does not seem to translate into improved academic outcomes. The nearby Dr. Richard Izquierdo Health and Science Charter School, while still underperforming the state average, outperforms Bronx Latin School and the surrounding district schools on many metrics, including test scores and graduation rates. This suggests that simply increasing funding may not be enough to improve the school's performance, and that other factors, such as curriculum, instruction, and school leadership, may be more important.
