Summary

The Buffalo School Of Culinary Arts And Hospitality Management is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Buffalo, NY, part of the Buffalo City School District. With 434 students, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of New York high schools over the past 5 years, with low proficiency rates on Regents exams compared to the district and state averages.

The school's academic performance is particularly weak in science subjects, with 0% proficiency in Earth Science and only 15.56% in Living Environment in 2024-2025. Graduation rates hover around 75-84%, lower than the district and state, and dropout rates range from 3-11%. The school has a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 86.81-88.02% qualifying for free/reduced lunch, and a diverse student population. Nearby schools like Leonardo Da Vinci High School, Buffalo Academy For The Visual & Performing Arts, and Emerson School Of Hospitality generally perform better, though they are still part of the low-performing Buffalo City School District.

The high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 31.5-77.4% in recent years, could be a significant factor in the school's poor academic outcomes. Targeted interventions and support to address the academic needs of its diverse student population, particularly in science and math subjects, as well as strategies to improve attendance, could be key areas for improvement. Collaboration with higher-performing nearby schools, such as City Honors School, could also provide opportunities for the Buffalo School Of Culinary Arts And Hospitality Management to learn from their success.
