Summary:

The 10552 zip code in Mount Vernon, New York is home to two high schools: Mount Vernon High School and Mount Vernon Steam Academy. Both schools serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, with over 65% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Based on the available data, Mount Vernon Steam Academy appears to be the stronger performing school of the two. It has a higher statewide school ranking, better test scores across various subject areas, and a higher graduation rate compared to Mount Vernon High School. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Mount Vernon Steam Academy had significantly higher proficiency rates than Mount Vernon High School in subjects like Regents/Common Core Algebra II (68.92% vs. 24.29%), Regents/Common Core English Language Arts (71.36% vs. 66.85%), and Regents/U.S. History and Government (91.15% vs. 68.27%). Mount Vernon Steam Academy also had a lower chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5% compared to 31.5% at Mount Vernon High School in the 2023-2024 school year.

Despite the similar demographic profiles, the higher spending per student at Mount Vernon High School ($39,325 vs. $29,590) does not seem to translate to better outcomes compared to Mount Vernon Steam Academy. This raises questions about the efficient allocation of resources and the factors driving school performance. The relatively low student-teacher ratios at both schools suggest class sizes are not a significant factor in the performance differences between the two schools. Overall, the data highlights the importance of looking beyond just spending and demographic factors when evaluating school performance, and suggests that factors such as school leadership, instructional practices, and student support services may be playing a key role in driving student success.
