Summary:

The 10701 zip code area in Yonkers, New York is home to two high schools: Saunders Trades & Technical High School and Riverside High School. Based on the available data, Saunders Trades & Technical High School stands out as the higher-performing school, with stronger academic outcomes across most Regents exams compared to the district and state averages.

Saunders Trades & Technical High School has a four-year graduation rate on par with the district average and a lower dropout rate than the district. The school also spends more per student ($30,938) and has a lower student-teacher ratio of 12.9, which may contribute to its academic success. In contrast, Riverside High School struggles to meet the district and state averages on most Regents exams, with particularly low proficiency rates in Earth Science, Living Environment, and Algebra I.

Both schools face challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates of 31.5%, which is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the Yonkers City School District, which both schools belong to, is a lower-performing district overall, ranking 663 out of 874 in New York. Despite these challenges, Saunders Trades & Technical High School's strong academic performance, particularly among its economically disadvantaged student population, suggests the school may have effective teaching practices, curriculum, or other resources that contribute to student success.
