Best Elementary Schools in New York for Foster Care Students

Check out our new feature available only on SchoolDigger: rankings for different groups of students in New York!

Every year, the NY State Education Department shares test results for various student groups in each school. We use these results to find out which schools do best for each group and list them from the best to the worst.

Additionally, we also compare the performance of the subgroup to the performance of the school as a whole. This makes it easy to see if, for example, Foster Care students are overperforming or underperforming their peers in each school.

JUST IN! New York test scores and updated rankings for the - school year were recently posted to SchoolDigger!
