The share of parents and guardians who responded positively to "At this school my child is safe" on the NYC School Survey. This reflects what families reported, not students or staff.

We don't rank schools on this one. Almost every family answers it positively, so NYC schools are bunched within a few points of each other and a ranking would turn that gap into a verdict it can't support. The range above is where the middle half of schools land.

The share of parents and guardians who responded positively to "School staff regularly communicate with me" on the NYC School Survey. This reflects what families reported, not students or staff.

The share of parents and guardians who responded positively to "I trust the principal/school leader at their word" on the NYC School Survey. It asks about the school leader specifically, not about teachers.

Removals and suspensions per 100 enrolled students, calculated from the DOE's annual student discipline report (Local Law 93). The DOE withholds small counts for privacy, so many schools — especially elementary schools — show "Withheld" here; that means the count was under the reporting threshold, not zero and not high.

The DOE withholds values for very small student groups to protect privacy.

The total number of students enrolled at this school that year.

The scale shows where this school sits among all NYC schools that year. The shaded middle is where half of them fall.

The DOE's estimate of how much economic hardship a school's students face. A student counts fully if their family receives public assistance, they lived in temporary housing in the past four years, or they are a recent-immigrant high schooler whose home language is not English. Otherwise they count by the poverty rate of their census tract. The school's figure is the average across its students, which is why it usually runs higher than the poverty measure.

The DOE published this only as a range, so we show the range instead of inventing a number.

The share of students who are English Language Learners and receive services to build their English proficiency.

The share of students with disabilities — those who have an Individualized Education Program (IEP).

The scale shows where this school sits among all NYC schools that year. The shaded middle is where half of them fall.

The share of students the DOE counts as living in poverty. Because every NYC school serves free meals, the DOE identifies these students by matching against income-based assistance programs rather than by lunch-form applications.

The share of students who experienced homelessness during the school year — living in a shelter or doubled up with other families — from the DOE's Local Law 73 report. This describes the students a school serves, not the school's quality.

The school's enrollment divided by its guidance-counselor staffing (in full-time equivalents), from the DOE's annual guidance counselor report. A lower number means more counselor time per student. Social workers are counted separately.

The school's enrollment divided by its social-worker staffing (in full-time equivalents), from the DOE's annual guidance counselor and social worker report. A lower number means more social-worker time per student.

Guidance counselors on staff, counted in full-time equivalents from the DOE's annual report. Two half-time counselors count as one, and a decimal like 1.4 usually means the school shares a counselor's time with other schools.

Full-time certified school librarians at this location, from the DOE's Local Law 80 report — the city's first per-school librarian data, published starting with the 2025-26 school year. A zero is what the DOE reported, not a gap in this site's data.

The PA/PTA's reported income divided by the school's enrollment — the clearest way to compare parent fundraising across schools of different sizes. "Not reported" means the PTA did not file.

What the school's parent association (PA/PTA) reported raising in the year shown, from the DOE's Local Law 171 report. PTAs file these figures with their school under Chancellor's Regulation A-660. "Not reported" means the PTA did not file — not necessarily that the school has no PTA.

Full-time teachers with a physical-education license at this school, from the DOE's Local Law 102 report. Elementary classroom teachers may also teach PE without holding the license, so a low count at an elementary school is common.

The share of this school's 7th and 8th graders with weekly scheduled class time led by a licensed school librarian, from the DOE's Local Law 80 report. Only grades 7-8 are covered by the law, and most schools citywide report 0% — a real finding of the report, not missing data.

Students at this high school who played on a Public Schools Athletic League team during the year, from the DOE's Local Law 120 report. High schools only; a student on two teams may be counted for each. Some campuses share PSAL programs — participation there is credited to the program's home school.
