Summary

Eagle Academy For Young Men III is a public high school located in Jamaica, New York, serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 479 students. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #29, which is ranked 549 out of 874 districts in New York and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Eagle Academy For Young Men III has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York high schools, with proficiency rates on state assessments and Regents exams that are generally below the district and state averages. The school's four-year graduation rate has ranged from 79.2% to 91.4%, which is lower than the district and state averages, and its dropout rate has been higher than the district and state. The school serves a predominantly African American and Hispanic student population, with a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, and has experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism.

Despite the school's higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratios compared to the district and state, the academic performance of Eagle Academy For Young Men III remains a concern. This suggests that the allocation and utilization of resources may need to be re-evaluated to ensure they are effectively supporting student learning and achievement. Nearby schools like Queens Satellite High School For Opportunity and York Early College Academy may offer alternative options for families in the area.
