Summary:

There is only one middle school located in the 11216 zip code - Restoration Academy. This school serves grades 6-8 and is part of the New York City Geographic District #13.

Restoration Academy is a struggling school, ranking between 1325-1366 out of 1500-1504 middle schools in New York state and receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates on state assessments are significantly lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 8th grade proficiency rates were 34.62% in ELA, 23.08% in Math, and 34.62% in Science, compared to district averages of 51.31%, 30.88%, and 43.81% respectively.

Despite the school's high per-student spending of $49,578 and relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.4, it is not achieving strong academic outcomes. This raises concerns about the effectiveness of the school's instructional practices and resource allocation. Additionally, the school serves a high-poverty student population, with 94.23% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Significant interventions and support may be required to improve Restoration Academy's performance and provide a high-quality education for its students.
