While Aeci II: NYC Charter High School serves a diverse, predominantly low-income student population, its academic performance, as measured by its statewide ranking, suggests room for improvement. Addressing the challenges of chronic absenteeism and ensuring that resources are effectively utilized to support student learning could be areas of focus for the school's administration and the broader education community.
