Summary:
The Bronx's zip code 10469 is home to 5 high schools that serve students in grades 9-12. These schools, while sharing some common challenges, exhibit varying academic performance and strengths. The Collegiate Institute For Math And Science stands out with the highest statewide ranking, graduation rate, and Regents exam proficiency, particularly in core subjects. In contrast, High School For Language And Innovation and Bronxdale High School tend to have lower Regents exam proficiency rates compared to their peers.
A common challenge faced by all 5 schools is the high chronic absenteeism rate, which hovers around 31.5%. Additionally, these schools serve communities with significant socioeconomic challenges, as evidenced by the high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 83.9% to 97.46%. The variation in spending per student, from $27,819 to $38,291, raises questions about the equity and effectiveness of resource allocation across these schools.
Despite the shared challenges, the data suggests that Astor Collegiate Academy and Collegiate Institute For Math And Science are the standout performers in the area, with strong Regents exam proficiency and relatively low student-teacher ratios. Understanding the factors that contribute to their success could provide valuable insights for improving educational outcomes across the New York City Geographic District #11.
