Summary:

The 10459 zip code in the Bronx, New York is home to 7 high schools serving grades 6-12, including a mix of public, public charter, and specialized schools. These schools serve a predominantly low-income student population, with 90-96% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Among the standout schools in this area is Bronx Regional High School, which has the highest overall performance with above-average proficiency rates on Regents exams compared to the district and state. Arturo A Schomburg Satellite Academy Bronx also stands out, with the highest Regents English Language Arts proficiency rate at 67.24%. In contrast, schools like Urban Dove Team Charter School III and Metropolitan High School are struggling, with very low proficiency rates on Regents exams.

The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance and resource allocation among the schools in this zip code. The specialized schools, like PS 811 and Bronx Regional High School, have significantly higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratios, which may contribute to their stronger academic outcomes. Addressing the high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 31.5% to 31.5% across all schools, will be crucial for improving overall educational outcomes in this area.
