Middle School 390

Summary:

Middle School 390 is a public middle school located in the Bronx, New York, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 394 students. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #10, which is ranked 728 out of 866 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Middle School 390 faces significant challenges in terms of academic performance, with consistently low rankings in the bottom 25% of New York middle schools over the past 10 years. The school's proficiency rates on New York State Assessments are significantly lower than the New York City District #10 and New York state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2022-2023, the school's 8th-grade proficiency rates were 46.9% in ELA, 42.18% in Math, and 23.19% in Science, compared to district averages of 50.03%, 31.95%, and 26%, respectively. The school also struggles to support its student subgroups, with most subgroups ranking in the bottom 50% of New York middle schools, and its lowest-performing subgroups, Special Education students and English Language Learners, ranking in the bottom 25% and bottom 35%, respectively.

Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $23,717 in the 2022-2023 school year, which is significantly higher than the state average and the surrounding schools in the district, Middle School 390's academic outcomes remain significantly below the district and state averages. This raises questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources at the school. For example, the Bronx School of Young Leaders, located just 0.24 miles away, outperforms Middle School 390 across multiple academic measures.

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.
