Summary:

New York City Geographic District #10 is home to 29 high schools serving students in the Bronx area. The district as a whole struggles, ranking 715th out of 865 districts in New York state, but there are some standout high-performing schools as well as those facing significant challenges.

The Bronx High School Of Science and High School Of American Studies At Lehman College are exceptional, ranking 6th and 20th in the state respectively. These schools have near-perfect proficiency rates across core subjects and graduation rates over 84%. In contrast, many other district schools have proficiency rates well below state averages and high chronic absenteeism rates, indicating broader challenges facing students in the area.

While higher spending and smaller class sizes are associated with better outcomes, the data shows these factors alone do not guarantee success. Schools like Providing Urban Learners Success In Education High School have seen significant improvement despite high levels of economic disadvantage, demonstrating that with the right strategies, even high-needs schools can achieve strong results. Addressing the underlying issues contributing to chronic absenteeism and inequities within the New York City Geographic District #10 will be key to raising performance across the board.
