As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

When my child attended, it was awesome. My child thrived in this school and was encouraged to be herself. We never had any issues with the administration other than I felt sometimes too strict - not a bad thing. My child was exposed to cultural events and musical events. My child graduated in 2019 and is thriving in a very good nyc high school. Coming from a child in a private school, CSA is a big step up! I don't think parents/students realize how lucky they are to be part of CSA! Kids in catholic schools aren't exposed to half of things students are exposed to at CSA. And Yes some kids rowdy however that is normal. Never an issue with my child that wasn't rectified. My child and I were crying at graduation, we wanted CSA to run into high school. Close Quote

Think twice about sending your child here. Definitely have great art opportunities, but insanely incompetent administration and high teacher turnover. School has struggled with discipline policies as well. Very cramped with one elevator to the 12th floor and no gym. 20 minute lunch and no recess. Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
