Summary

Brooklyn Arts And Science Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 246 students in grades PK-5 in the New York City Geographic District #17. While the school has been consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools, a closer look reveals some interesting insights.

One key area of concern is the school's academic performance. Brooklyn Arts And Science Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the district and state in English Language Arts and Math proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 3rd grade ELA proficiency was 47.22%, compared to the district's 61.28% and the state's 54.15%. However, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Hispanic and Special Education students performing relatively well, while African American, Male, Low Socioeconomic Status, and Homeless students perform poorly.

Another interesting finding is the school's resource allocation. Despite a significant increase in per-student spending, from $20,474 in 2020-2021 to $39,762 in 2023-2024, this increased funding has not translated into improved academic outcomes. When compared to nearby schools in the same district, such as PS 241 Emma L Johnston and PS 316 Elijah Stroud, Brooklyn Arts And Science Elementary School consistently underperforms on state assessments and has a lower New York City Geographic District #17 ranking.
