Summary:

The 11207 zip code area of Brooklyn, New York is home to 6 high schools that serve grades 9-12, all part of the New York City Geographic District #19. While the district is ranked 726 out of 874 in the state with a 1-star rating, a few schools in the area stand out, including W H Maxwell Career And Technical Education High School and Performing Arts And Technology High School.

W H Maxwell Career And Technical Education High School has the highest SchoolDigger ranking in the group at 885 out of 1,234 New York high schools, with strong performance on several Regents exams. Performing Arts And Technology High School has the second-highest ranking at 945 and solid performance on the Common Core English Language Arts Regents exam. Both schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios compared to the other schools in the area.

However, the data also reveals consistently low performance across most of the schools in the 11207 zip code, with significant disparities in academic achievement compared to the broader district and state. All schools have high rates of free/reduced lunch and chronic absenteeism, suggesting they face significant socioeconomic challenges. While the overall picture is concerning, the success of W H Maxwell and Performing Arts And Technology High School indicates there may be opportunities to learn from their practices and apply them more broadly to improve outcomes for students in this area.
