Class of 2025 (original freshman year students-
a) Asian: 78.2% b) Black: 2.4% c) Hispanic or Latinx: 4.9% d) White: 19.9% e) Other: 2.0% |
Free/reduced lunch 49%
Admissions based SOLELY on an admissions test. |
That is not so different from TJ, where 19% of the students are whites, although the Hispanic or Latinx are 7%. |
Notably, the FARM percentage stays relatively stable at Stuyvesant.
The FARM percentage at TJ see significant drop off. |
Yes, but with Stuyvesant, it is 1 of several high school options admitted off of the same test, Competitive, yes, but not without good back up options if Stuy was the first choice but didn't make the cut. At my alma mater, Stuy and Bronx science were pretty equally represented with a spattering of other NYC specialized high schools. |
Impressive. |
I guess the point I was trying to make was that a test only admissions process selects plenty of poor kids. Bronx science also very high FARM. |
NYC school must do a much better job of educating their FARMS students than FCPS….. |
At TJ, political agenda has made racial balancing a priority over FARMS. If race based essay selection was removed, TJ would have had more FARMS but then Asian American percent would have gone up too. |
It's a few things Asians in NYC are largely poor immigrants that value education more than other groups. Most of the wealthy kids go to private school. Most of the UMC kids move to the suburbs. A lot of the conspicuously high performing URM kids go to private on scholarship ( the private schools in NYC have a program to find and recruit them). And three whole district is pretty much FARM so their programs are geared towards that group. FCPS is mostly middle class so that's who it is built for. |

Largely because more poor kids attend an urban public school district than a wealthy suburban one. |
As it should be. |
