Summary

Jean Nuzzi Intermediate School is a public middle school located in Queens Village, New York, serving 917 students in grades 6-8 and part of the New York City Geographic District #29.

The school has shown a mixed academic performance, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math above the district and state averages for most grade levels, particularly strong in 8th grade ELA (58.21% proficient) and 6th grade Math (52.03% proficient). However, the school's performance in Science and some Regents exams, such as Algebra I and Living Environment, was below the district and state averages. The school's high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, around 75% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, may be a contributing factor.

However, some schools in the neighboring District #26, such as Junior High School 216 George J. Ryan and Middle School 158 Marie Curie, significantly outperform Jean Nuzzi Intermediate School and the district average.
