Best Public Schools in Zip Code 10003

Summary:

The 17 schools in zip code 10003 in New York City serve a diverse student population, ranging from elementary to high school. While the academic performance varies significantly across the schools, a few standout institutions demonstrate exceptional results. Success Academy Charter School-Union Square and Middle School 255 Salk School Of Science are two top-performing schools, ranking among the best in the state and earning 5-star ratings from SchoolDigger.

The data reveals stark contrasts in academic performance, with some schools significantly outperforming the district and state averages, while others struggle to meet proficiency standards. Specialized schools, such as Ballet Technical/Nyc Public School For Dance, also stand out for their exceptional results. However, the analysis does not show a clear correlation between per-student spending and academic performance, suggesting that factors beyond funding may play a role in student outcomes.

Addressing chronic absenteeism, which ranges from 34.1% to 34.1% across the schools, may be a significant challenge for the institutions in this area. Overall, the data provides a comprehensive overview of the educational landscape in zip code 10003, highlighting both the strengths and areas for improvement within the local school system.
