New Millennium Bronx Academy Of The Arts

Summary:

New Millennium Bronx Academy Of The Arts is a public middle school located in the Bronx, New York, serving 163 students in grades 6-8. The school has a diverse student body, with a racial makeup of 0.61% White, 33.74% African American, and 65.03% Hispanic, and is part of the New York City Geographic District #9, which is ranked 755 out of 866 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite its diverse student population, New Millennium Bronx Academy Of The Arts has consistently ranked in the bottom 15% of New York middle schools over the past decade, with test scores significantly below state and district averages. In 2022-2023, the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts (ELA) ranged from 37.5% for 6th grade to 43.4% for 8th grade, compared to the state averages of 45.82% for 6th grade and 55.2% for 8th grade. In math, the proficiency rates were even lower, ranging from 9.52% for 8th grade to 16.13% for 6th grade, compared to the state averages of 40.74% for 8th grade and 48.07% for 6th grade. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as Hispanic students in ELA and English Language Learner students in ELA, ranking in the bottom 25% and 30% of New York middle schools, respectively.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Science And Technology Academy: A Mott Hall School, which is located just 0.2 miles away, New Millennium Bronx Academy Of The Arts is clearly underperforming, with significantly higher test scores and a much higher statewide ranking (315 out of 1,500 schools in 2022-2023). Despite the school's persistent challenges, there is little evidence of sustained improvement over the past decade, suggesting that the school may face significant obstacles in providing a high-quality education to its students, particularly given the high percentage of students from low-income families (93.87% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch) and the school's location in a high-poverty district.

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.
