Summary:

The 10705 zip code in Yonkers, New York is home to a single middle school, Yonkers Middle School, which serves grades 7-8 with a total enrollment of 569 students. While the school's 7th-grade proficiency rates in ELA and math are above the Yonkers City School District average, its 8th-grade proficiency rates are significantly lower, indicating potential challenges in maintaining academic progress as students advance through the grades.

Yonkers Middle School's statewide ranking has declined over the past three years, going from 1020 out of 1500 New York middle schools in 2024-2025 to 1251 out of 1500 in 2022-2023, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's low proficiency rates in 8th-grade science (22.79% vs. 43.5% statewide) and Regents exams in Living Environment and Algebra I (both 100% proficient) are particularly concerning and may warrant further investigation into the underlying causes and potential interventions.

Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.7:1, it serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, with 83.3% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This high percentage of economically disadvantaged students may present unique challenges and require targeted support and resources to address the school's academic performance issues.
