Summary

Aeci Ii: Nyc Charter High School is a public charter high school located in the Bronx, New York, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 460 students. While the school is part of the Aeci Ii: Nyc Charter High School District, which is ranked 698 out of 874 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, the school itself faces significant challenges in terms of student achievement, graduation rates, and attendance.

Aeci Ii: Nyc Charter High School's 4-year graduation rates have ranged from 84.3% to 94.0% over the past few years, which is generally lower than the state average. Additionally, the school's dropout rates have fluctuated between 1.0% and 10.0%, higher than the state average, and its chronic absenteeism rates have ranged from 31.5% to 51.4%, significantly higher than the state average. The school's proficiency rates on Regents exams are also generally lower than the state averages, particularly in subjects like Algebra II, Geometry, and U.S. History and Government. When compared to nearby schools in the same district, such as Bronx Early College Academy For Teaching And Learning, Bronx School For Law Government And Justice, and Comprehensive Model School Project Middle School 327, Aeci Ii: Nyc Charter High School generally performs worse on these key metrics.

The school's challenges may be heavily influenced by the socioeconomic status of its student population, with 99.35% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year. While the school's spending per student has increased over the years, from $17,255 in 2020-2021 to $24,283 in 2023-2024, this increased spending does not seem to have translated into significantly improved academic outcomes. Additionally, the school has a relatively high student-teacher ratio, ranging from 13.4 to 14.8 over the past few years, which could be a contributing factor to its underperformance. To improve student outcomes, the school may need to re-evaluate its resource allocation, instructional strategies, and support systems for its diverse student population.
