Summary

Ps 59 Dr Charles Drew Science Magnet is an elementary school serving grades 3-8 in the Buffalo City School District, with 561 students in a low-income area of Buffalo, NY. Despite spending significantly more per student ($26,496 in 2023-2024) compared to the district average, the school has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing elementary schools in New York state over the past decade, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ps 59 Dr Charles Drew Science Magnet's academic performance is significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 35% of 3rd graders were proficient in ELA, compared to 54.15% statewide. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 10-15% of New York elementary schools for Asian, African American, and Hispanic students in both ELA and math. Nearby schools in the Buffalo City School District, such as Community School #53 and Martin Luther King Jr. #48, also perform poorly on state assessments, with proficiency rates well below the state averages.

The challenges faced by Ps 59 Dr Charles Drew Science Magnet are not unique and are likely systemic issues within the Buffalo City School District. However, the nearby Persistence Preparatory Academy Charter School, which serves a similar demographic of students, outperforms Ps 59 Dr Charles Drew Science Magnet and the other district schools on state assessments, particularly in math and ELA. This highlights the potential impact of alternative educational models and approaches on student achievement.
