The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #29, which is ranked 574 out of 865 districts in New York and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school has shown steady academic progress, with its statewide ranking improving from 1084 out of 1207 New York high schools in 2018-2019 to 640 out of 1242 in 2023-2024. Its performance on Regents/Common Core exams is generally higher than the district and state averages, particularly in subjects like English Language Arts, Algebra II, and Global History and Geography. The school also performs well for certain student subgroups, such as African American students, Hispanic students, and English Language Learners. However, the school faces challenges with chronic absenteeism, with rates ranging from 34.1% to 52.2% over the past few years, which are higher than the district and state averages.

Compared to other schools in the same district, such as Cambria Heights Academy and Eagle Academy For Young Men III, Health Arts Robotics And Technology High School generally outperforms its peers in academic measures. However, the school's overall statewide ranking is still in the lower half of New York high schools, indicating room for improvement. The school's high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 76.35% to 84.44% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, may contribute to the higher chronic absenteeism rates, despite the school's per-student spending being generally higher than the district and state averages.

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.
