Eagle Academy For Young Men

Summary:

Eagle Academy For Young Men is a public high school located in the Bronx, New York, serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 441 students. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #9, which is ranked 755 out of 865 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite its relatively high per-student spending, Eagle Academy For Young Men faces significant challenges in student academic performance, graduation rates, and chronic absenteeism. The school consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of New York high schools, with proficiency rates on state assessments that are significantly below the state and local district averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 20% of 6th graders were proficient in ELA, compared to 43.64% statewide and 25.34% in the local district. The school's 4-year graduation rate of around 84% is slightly below the state average, and its dropout rate is higher than the state and district averages, ranging from 4.3% to 10% in recent years. Additionally, Eagle Academy For Young Men has a very high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 34.1% to 60.8% in recent years, significantly higher than the state and district averages.

Interestingly, the nearby schools, such as Young Women's Leadership School Of The Bronx, Bronx Leadership Academy High School, and Urban Assembly School For Applied Math And Science, generally perform better than Eagle Academy For Young Men on academic measures, with higher proficiency rates and graduation rates, as well as lower chronic absenteeism rates. However, these nearby schools still serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, similar to Eagle Academy For Young Men.

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.

This school is very strict when it comes to students wearing their uniforms but when it comes to bullying they dropped the ball. My 10th grader has been getting bullied for years in this school and my complaints go unanswered. Let my son's tie be a little out of place and he immediately gets detention. Speaking of detention if one student misbehaves all the students in the class get detention, even the well-behaved ones. Close Quote

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.
