Summary:
The 10465 zip code area of the Bronx, New York is home to 8 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 1 alternative school, serving a diverse student population with a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students. While some schools, like Middle School 101 Edward R Byrne and Ps 304 Early Childhood School, demonstrate strong academic performance, others, such as Mott Hall Community School, struggle with proficiency rates well below the district and state averages.
The data suggests a correlation between socioeconomic status and student achievement, as the schools with the highest free/reduced lunch rates tend to have lower academic performance. However, the wide range in spending per student, from $18,098 at Middle School 101 Edward R Byrne to $72,606 at Ps 10, does not necessarily translate to better outcomes, highlighting the need for targeted interventions and support to address the disparities in student performance.
The strong performance of Middle School 101 Edward R Byrne, which has consistently ranked among the top 335 out of 1500 middle schools in New York state, underscores the critical role middle schools play in preparing students for success in high school and beyond. Overall, the educational landscape in the 10465 zip code is complex, with both high-performing and underperforming schools, and suggests the need for a nuanced approach to addressing the unique challenges faced by each institution.
