Summary

PS 90 Horace Mann is an elementary school located in Richmond Hill, New York, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 587 students. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #27, which is ranked 571 out of 874 districts in New York and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite having a relatively high per-student spending of $32,014 and a low student-teacher ratio of 13.9, PS 90 Horace Mann has consistently performed below the district and state averages in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency rates across grades 3-5. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate was 45.16% compared to the district's 56.42% and the state's 54.15%. The school's performance is particularly low for Asian students, who rank in the bottom 25% of Asian students statewide in ELA and Math. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 90.12% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year, and a significant population of English Language Learners (ELLs).

Interestingly, the school's performance has fluctuated over the years, with the school ranking as high as 373 out of 2,201 New York elementary schools in the 2020-2021 school year, but then dropping to 1,296 out of 2,445 schools in the 2024-2025 school year. This volatility in performance is not seen in the nearby schools, such as PS 66 Jacqueline Kennedy-Onassis, which consistently outperforms PS 90 Horace Mann in ELA and Math proficiency rates, despite having a similar student demographic and funding profile. However, the school's performance for specific student subgroups, such as African American and Hispanic students, is more promising, with the school ranking in the top 25% of schools statewide for these subgroups in certain years.

What people are saying

by a teacher
Tuesday, November 15, 2011

Did you know that P.S. 90 Horace Mann has a ongoing BED BUG problem since September 2010? It was so bad it caused a students family over $3,000.00 to treat the problem and the student had to lose services just to get out of this school. The bug problem was directly in the students classroom and the teachers of that classroom never admitted it to the kids parents right away. They not only failed this child but the family as well. The child's family lost furniture, clothing, shoes and family members as well as friends stop coming to their home. What P.S. 90 did to this child and the child's family was wrong as well as disgusting. They made their problem somebody elses because they never worked hard enough to get rid of this BED BUG problem. Anyone sending their children to this school need to question the authority and get facts because this school is very good at denying they have a problem. Close Quote
