Summary

Epic High School - North is a public high school serving 386 students in grades 9-12 in South Richmond Hill, New York, which is part of the New York City Geographic District #27. The school consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of New York high schools, with low proficiency rates on Regents exams and a graduation rate below the district and state averages.

Compared to nearby schools like Robert H Goddard High School-Community/Technical, High School-Construction Trades Engineering & Architecture, and John Adams High School, Epic High School - North performs significantly worse on academic metrics. However, the school's support for its homeless student population is a bright spot, with this group performing much better than the school's overall student body.

To address the challenges faced by Epic High School - North, a comprehensive approach may be needed, including targeted interventions to improve student engagement, academic support, and access to resources for economically disadvantaged and English Language Learner students. By learning from the school's success in supporting its homeless students, the administration may be able to develop strategies to improve outcomes for other underserved groups and raise the overall performance of the school.
