Summary:

Malcolm X Shabazz High School is a public high school serving 272 students in grades 9-12 in Newark, New Jersey, which is part of the Newark Public School District. The school has a predominantly African American student population (80.15%) and faces significant challenges, ranking in the bottom quarter of New Jersey high schools over the past decade.

Academically, Malcolm X Shabazz High School consistently performs well below state and district averages on standardized tests, with proficiency rates ranging from just 1.9% to 34.5% compared to state averages of 19.2% to 52.1%. The school's four-year graduation rate has fluctuated between 56.3% and 68.2%, significantly lower than surrounding schools like Science Park High School, which has a 97% graduation rate.

While the school's per-student spending is higher than the state average, indicating that funding may not be the primary issue, the school's challenges likely stem from a combination of factors, including school leadership, teacher quality, and student engagement. To address these concerns, the school and district should consider implementing targeted interventions, strengthening family and community engagement, and exploring opportunities for partnership and resource-sharing with nearby high-performing schools like Science Park High School.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
