East Side Middle School's students demonstrate remarkable proficiency on both New York State Assessments and Regents exams, with scores that are 10-30 percentage points higher than the New York City District #2 and statewide averages. The school's Regents exam pass rates for Algebra I and Life Science Biology are around 90%, significantly outpacing the district and state.
