Report on Demographic Data in New York City Public Schools, 2020-21Enrollment counts are based on the November 13 Audited Register for 2020.
Categories with total enrollment values of zero were omitted.
Pre-K data includes students in 3-K.
Data on students with disabilities, English language learners, and student poverty status are as of March 19, 2021.
Due to missing demographic information in rare cases and suppression rules, demographic categories do not always add up to total enrollment and/or citywide totals.
NYC DOE "Eligible for free or reduced-price lunch” counts are based on the number of students with families who have qualified for free or reduced-price lunch or are eligible for Human Resources Administration (HRA) benefits.
English Language Arts and Math state assessment results for students in grade 9 are not available for inclusion in this report, as the spring 2020 exams did not take place.
Spring 2021 ELA and Math test results are not included in this report for K-8 students in 2020-21. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic’s complete transformation of New York City’s school system during the 2020-21 school year, and in accordance with New York State guidance, the 2021 ELA and Math assessments were optional for students to take. As a result, 21.6% of students in grades 3-8 took the English assessment in 2021 and 20.5% of students in grades 3-8 took the Math assessment. These participation rates are not representative of New York City students and schools and are not comparable to prior years, so results are not included in this report.
Dual Language enrollment includes English Language Learners and non-English Language Learners.
Dual Language data are based on data from STARS; as a result, school participation and student enrollment in Dual Language programs may differ from the data in this report. STARS course scheduling and grade management software applications provide a dynamic internal data system for school use; while standard course codes exist, data are not always consistent from school to school.
This report does not include enrollment at District 75 & 79 programs. Students enrolled at Young Adult Borough Centers are represented in the 9-12 District data but not the 9-12 School data.
“Prior Year” data included in Comparison tabs refers to data from 2019-20. “Year-to-Year Change” data included in Comparison tabs indicates whether the demographics of a school or special program have grown more or less similar to its district or attendance zone (or school, for special programs) since 2019-20. Year-to-year changes must have been at least 1 percentage point to qualify as “More Similar” or “Less Similar”; changes less than 1 percentage point are categorized as “No Change”.
The admissions method tab contains information on the admissions methods used for elementary, middle, and high school programs during the Fall 2020 admissions process. Fall 2020 selection criteria are included for all programs with academic screens, including middle and high school programs. Selection criteria data is based on school-reported information. Fall 2020 Diversity in Admissions priorities is included for applicable middle and high school programs. Note that the data on each school’s demographics and performance includes all students of the given subgroup who were enrolled in the school on November 13, 2020. Some of these students may not have been admitted under the admissions method(s) shown, as some students may have enrolled in the school outside the centralized admissions process (via waitlist, over-the-counter, or transfer), and schools may have changed admissions methods over the past few years. Admissions methods are only reported for grades K-12.
"3K and Pre-Kindergarten data are reported at the site level. See below for definitions of site types included in this report. Additionally, please note that this report excludes all students at District 75 sites, reflecting slightly lower enrollment than our total of 60,265 students

Please note the following arts-related data are now collected from other sources:
The number of certified art teachers and non-certified teachers teaching the arts is collected form the HR and BEDS survey
The arts instructional hours provided to elementary students are collected from the Student Transcript and Academic Recording System (STARS)

The DOE has previously identified 594 schools located in 330 buildings as “under-utilized” based upon the 2010-2011 Enrollment-Capacity-Utilization Report (The Blue Book). The DOE is also identifying 25 school buildings (listed below) which contain schools proposed for full phase-out, grade truncation or immediate closure due to poor performance. These proposals are scheduled to be voted on by the Panel for Education Policy on February 9, 2012. Should these proposals be approved, there will be excess space available in the buildings. In many cases, the DOE has already made companion proposals on how to use this additional space

2011-2012 NYC Family Guides

Local Law 102 enacted in 2015 requires the Department of Education of the New York City School District to submit to the Council an annual report concerning physical education for the prior school year. This report provides information about the provision of physical education instruction, including the number and percentage of students who received or were scheduled to receive the required amount of PE instruction, average PE class size, PE instruction received by students who have an IEP with an adaptive physical education recommendation, the ratio of licensed physical education instructors, and the number of licensed instructors who have received physical education professional development in the preceding two school years.
In prior years, this report provided information about physical education instructional spaces, PE substitutions granted to students, and the average frequency and average total minutes per week of physical education students received as defined in Local Law 102. Because of the shift to blended and remote learning during the 2020-21 school year as a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic:
This report consists of eleven tabs:
1. PE Instruction Borough-Level
2. PE Instruction School-Level
3. PE Instruction District-Level
4 PE Instruction Citywide-Level
5. Adapted Physical Education – School Level
6. Adapted Physical Education – District Level
7. Adapted Physical Education – Borough Level
8. Licensed PE Teachers
9. Professional Development
10. Supplemental Programs
11. PE Scope and Sequence

Capacity project detail by school.

To collect feedback on their learning environment from families, students and teachers. Aids in facilitating the understanding of families perceptions, students, and teachers regarding their school. School leaders use feedback from the survey to reflect and make improvements to schools and programs. Each year all parents, teachers and students in grades 6-12 take the NYC School Survey. The survey is aligned to the DOE's Framework for Great Schools. It is designed to collect important information about each school's ability to support student success.

2006/07 Progress Report results for all schools (data as of 1/14/09)

Peer indices are calculated differently depending on School Level. Schools are only compared to other schools in the same School Level (e.g., Elementary, K-8, Middle, High)

1) Elementary & K-8 - peer index is a value from 0-100. We use a composite demographic statistic based on % ELL, % SpEd, % Title I free lunch, and % Black/Hispanic. Higher values indicate student populations with higher need

2) Middle & High - peer index is a value from 1.00-4.50. For middle schools, we use the average 4th grade proficiency ratings in ELA and Math for all their students that have 4th grade test scores. For high schools, we use the average 8th grade proficiency ratings in ELA and Math for all their students that have 8th grade test scores. Lower values indicate student populations with higher need

3) D84 / Charter Schools - the overall score does not include the results of the learning environment survey.

4) Schools for Transfer Students - consists of schools with large populations of high school students transferring from NYC High Schools or from out of state/country. No peer index value is assigned because this set of schools is its own peer group. The reports contain 3 categories with one additional credit section. Unlike the HS Progress Report, the Environment Category is only composed of Survey Results. Performance measures 6-year graduation rate and Progress captures student level improvements in attendance, credit accumulation and Regents passed. The additional credit section rewards schools demonstrating exceptional achievement (11 credits or more earned per year) among overage/under-credit populations.
