Claremont International High School

Summary:

Claremont International High School is a public high school located in the Bronx, New York, serving grades 9-12 with 333 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.

Claremont International High School has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of New York high schools over the past several years, with low academic performance on Regents/Common Core exams compared to state and district averages. The school's four-year graduation rate has fluctuated between 76.8% and 87.6%, which is generally lower than the state and district averages, and its dropout rate has ranged from 4.9% to 10.0%, which is higher than the state and district averages. The school serves a predominantly minority student population, with 87% of students identifying as African American or Hispanic, and has a high percentage of English Language Learners and Special Education students.

While Claremont International High School has a relatively high per-student spending and a low student-teacher ratio, these factors alone do not appear to be driving improved outcomes. The school's challenges are similar to those faced by other nearby schools in the district, such as Bronx Collegiate Academy, Dreamyard Preparatory School, and New Directions Secondary School, which also have low academic performance, high poverty rates, and low rankings compared to the state. Addressing the systemic issues within the district and implementing targeted interventions may be necessary to help Claremont International High School and its students succeed.

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.
