Summary

Khalil Gibran International Academy is a small public high school in Brooklyn, New York, serving grades 9-12 and part of the New York City Geographic District #15. Despite its relatively high per-student spending and small class sizes, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of New York high schools over the past several years, with a 0 or 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school's performance is particularly low across various student subgroups, including Asian, African American, Hispanic, and White students, as well as English Language Learners and students with low socioeconomic status. Its four-year graduation rate has ranged from 75.5% to 84.3%, significantly lower than the district average of around 70%, and its dropout rate has been between 4.5% and 13.1%, higher than the district average. Khalil Gibran International Academy has also struggled with high chronic absenteeism, with rates ranging from 31.5% to 62.7% in recent years, far exceeding the district and state averages.
