Best Public Schools in Zip Code 10023

Summary:

The 10023 zip code in New York City is home to 11 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 7 high schools, and 1 alternative school. This area features a mix of high-performing and struggling schools, with standouts like Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School and PS 199 Jessie Isador Straus as well as lower-performing schools like High School of Arts and Technology and Maxine Greene High School.

The high-performing schools in this area, such as Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School and Manhattan/Hunter Science High School, boast exceptional test scores, high graduation rates, and low dropout rates. In contrast, the lower-performing schools struggle with below-average proficiency levels and higher chronic absenteeism. Interestingly, per-student spending does not appear to be a reliable indicator of school quality, as the school with the highest spending, Maxine Greene High School, is one of the lower-performing institutions in the area.

Overall, the schools in the 10023 zip code demonstrate a wide range of performance, highlighting the importance of school choice and the need for equitable access to high-quality education for all students, regardless of their socioeconomic background. The data suggests that factors such as student demographics and school resources may play a significant role in shaping academic outcomes, and further analysis could help identify the root causes of these disparities and inform strategies to support struggling schools in the area.
