The Blackboard Awards | 2009 Tuition Directory of Independent Elementary and Lower Schools

Reading These Charts: All information for public schools comes from New York State’s accountability and overview reports for the 2006-2007 year, the most recent data available at press time. School Size: For schools that run through middle or high school, this number represents the entire student body, not just the elementary grades. 4th Grade Exams: This is the combined percentage of students who scored at levels 3 or 4 on the 2006-2007 New York State math and English Language Arts (ELA) exams. Students at those levels met or exceeded standards. Those at level 1 do not meet standards, and those at level 2 show a partial understanding of the subject matter. * Hunter College Schools are tuition-free “laboratory” schools created by CUNY and governed by Hunter College. Though bound by state and some city regulations, they are not directly accountable to the city’s Department of Education. Hunter students do not take standardized tests administered to other public school students. The data for Hunter College Schools were provided by InsideSchools.org and refer to the elementary division, grades K to 6. Compiled by Christine Werthman
