Summary

School 22 is an elementary public magnet school located in Yonkers, NY, serving grades PK-6 with 399 students. The school is part of the Yonkers City School District, which is ranked 663 out of 874 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Over the past 10 years, School 22 has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools, typically in the range of 1,500-2,400 out of around 2,400 schools, with a low SchoolDigger star rating of mostly 1 or 2 stars out of 5.

School 22 appears to be struggling to provide a high-quality education for its students. The school's proficiency rates on the New York State Assessments are significantly lower than the Yonkers district and New York state averages across all grade levels and subjects. Additionally, the school struggles to effectively serve certain student subgroups, with rankings for African American, Hispanic, English Language Learner, Special Education, and Low Socioeconomic Status students all in the bottom half or bottom third of New York elementary schools. Despite spending significantly more per student ($28,236 in 2023-2024) compared to the state average, this does not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes.

The performance of nearby magnet schools in the Yonkers district, such as Family School 32, Paideia School 24, and Museum School 25, generally outperform School 22 on test scores and have higher SchoolDigger rankings, despite serving similar student demographics. Additionally, Hillside Elementary School in the neighboring Hastings-on-Hudson district is a high-performing school, with over 80% proficiency rates in ELA and Math, significantly outperforming School 22 and the Yonkers district as a whole.
