School For Global Leaders

Summary:

School For Global Leaders is a public middle school located in New York City's District 1, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 151 students. Despite its high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio, the school has consistently underperformed compared to district and state averages, ranking in the bottom half of New York middle schools over the past decade.

The school's academic performance is a significant concern, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math ranging from only 23-41% in the 2023-2024 school year. While certain student subgroups, such as English Language Learners and African American students, perform relatively well, female students and Hispanic students lag behind, ranking in the bottom half of the state. The school's high chronic absenteeism rate (34.1%) and relatively low graduation rate (84.3%) suggest that student engagement may be a challenge.

Interestingly, the school's proximity to higher-performing institutions like Tompkins Square Middle School and University Neighborhood Middle School, both located within the same District 1, highlights the potential for targeted interventions and strategies to address the unique needs of the School For Global Leaders' diverse student population.

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.
