Best Public Schools in Zip Code 11201

Summary:

The 11201 zip code area of Brooklyn, New York is home to 23 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 13 high schools. This diverse educational landscape features a mix of high-performing and low-performing institutions, with a clear divide between the elementary/middle schools and the high schools.

Among the standout schools in the area are PS 29 John M Harrigan, a top-ranked elementary school with exceptional proficiency rates, and Brooklyn Prospect Charter School-Central School District 13, a high-achieving elementary/middle charter school. On the other hand, some of the lower-performing schools include George Westinghouse Career And Technical Educational High School, Brooklyn International High School, and Cobble Hill School Of American Studies, which struggle with low proficiency rates and high chronic absenteeism.

The data reveals a complex landscape, with pockets of excellence alongside persistent challenges. While the charter schools in the area, such as Brooklyn Prospect and Success Academy, are among the top performers, there is a clear correlation between student demographics and academic performance, with schools serving predominantly minority and economically disadvantaged populations generally struggling more. Addressing these disparities and improving educational opportunities for all students in the 11201 zip code will be crucial for the future of the community.
