This year, we saw huge growth on the New York State exams in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Math for grades 3–8 across @NYCSchools!
To celebrate the success of our students, we’re spotlighting a few schools across the city where state test scores are on the rise.
In the 2024–25 school year, more than 2,500 students earned the New York State Seal of Biliteracy (NYSSB)—a 29% increase in recipients compared to the prior year!
