Summary

Fort Green Preparatory Academy is a public middle school in Brooklyn, New York, serving 201 students in grades 6-8. 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, Fort Green Preparatory Academy has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York middle schools, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math below the district and state averages across all grade levels. The school's performance on Regents exams, such as Algebra I and Living Environment, is also below the district and state averages. However, the school's academic performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with female students generally outperforming male students and white students performing significantly better than other racial/ethnic groups.

Compared to nearby schools, Bridges: A School For Exploration And Equity, located within the same district, consistently outperforms Fort Green Preparatory Academy on academic measures, ranking in the top 15% of New York middle schools. Other nearby schools, such as Exploratory School (The) and Edmund W Gordon Brooklyn Laboratory Charter School, also outperform Fort Green Preparatory Academy. Despite the school's relatively high spending per student and fluctuating student-teacher ratios, the academic performance remains below average, suggesting that simply increasing funding and staffing may not be the sole solution to improving student outcomes.
