What this school's NCES data tells you

Institute for Health Professions at Cambria Heights reports 464 enrolled students to the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) alongside 45.0 full-time-equivalent teachers, producing a 10.3:1 student-teacher ratio. That figure sits 12% below the New York state mean of 11.7:1, signalling more teacher attention per pupil than the state benchmark. Against the national 2024-25 average of 15.9:1, it is 35% lower, a useful calibration for families comparing districts across state lines.

Title I and federal lunch eligibility offer another window into the student body: 78.1% of pupils qualify for free meals, a proxy for household income that federal programs use to direct funding. The free-lunch share is 39% above the New York average and 51% above the national baseline. Chronic absenteeism — missing 10% or more of school days — stands at 53.4% according to the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.

Taken together, these measurements produce a Resource Investment Index of 25/100 (F), calculated from 4 distinct NCES and CRDC indicators measuring resource allocation rather than academic outcomes.
