The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #13, which is ranked 617 out of 874 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, George Westinghouse Career And Technical Educational High School consistently ranks in the bottom 20% of New York high schools, with proficiency rates on Regents exams significantly below the district and state averages across subjects like math, science, and English Language Arts. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 10.87% in Regents/Chemistry, 42.65% in Regents/Common Core Algebra II, and 61.74% in Regents/Common Core English Language Arts, compared to higher district and state averages. The school's four-year graduation rate has ranged from 84.3% to 88.3% in recent years, slightly below the district and state, and its dropout rate has been higher than average.

Interestingly, the school's proximity to higher-performing schools in the same district, such as Brooklyn Technical High School, highlights the challenges George Westinghouse Career And Technical Educational High School faces. Despite a significant increase in per-student spending, from $16,781 in 2020-2021 to $33,055 in 2023-2024, the school has not seen improved academic outcomes. Additionally, the school's high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 29.1% to 38.8% in recent years, and disparities in performance among different student subgroups suggest potential equity issues that need to be addressed.

This school is excellent and as a parent of a child that attends this school I am very happy with this school and faculty even with the regents exams that inside schools stated that students do not pass I support the school because they are very supportive and students do pass these exams.
