Class loads run heavy: 21.8:1 is larger than about 99% of New York schools and 85% above the 11.8:1 state mean, so each teacher carries more students than is typical.

Its free-meal eligibility rate of 47.7% lands close to the New York typical range, neither a high- nor low-need campus by this measure.

Enrollment of 566 puts it in the larger third of New York schools by headcount.

Its Resource Investment Index trails 98% of the 4,801 New York schools with a score on record, one of the lower results on this measure.

Among 773 similarly sized, similarly resourced-need New York schools statewide, it ranks #763, in the lower tier once campus size and economic need are matched.

Its student body is led by Hispanic or Latino (44%) and White (35%), more mixed than most schools in the state (diversity index 67/100).

Chronic absenteeism is elevated: 36.9% of students missed 10% or more of school days (2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection).
