Science Technology & Research Early College

Summary:

Science Technology & Research Early College is a public high school located in Brooklyn, New York, serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 610 students. This school is part of the New York City Geographic District #17, which is ranked 636 out of 865 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Science Technology & Research Early College consistently outperforms the district and state averages in proficiency rates for various state assessments and Regents exams across multiple grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school had significantly higher proficiency rates compared to the district and state in English Language Arts (ELA) for grades 6-8, Math for grades 6-7, and several Regents exams like Common Core Algebra II, Common Core English Language Arts, and Global History and Geography. The school also performs exceptionally well for certain student subgroups, particularly African American and Hispanic students, who rank among the top in the state for their respective groups. Additionally, the school maintains a relatively high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 78.6% to 100% over the past few years, which is generally higher than the district and state averages.

While the school's overall performance is strong, there are a few areas where it could potentially improve, such as the relatively high chronic absenteeism rates and the performance of special education and low socioeconomic status students, which are not as strong as the school's performance for other subgroups. Compared to the nearby schools in the same district, such as Science Technology & Research Early College and Midwood High School, Science Technology & Research Early College generally outperforms them in academic measures, graduation rates, and student group performance.

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.
