Dec. 23, 2024
This decline in enrollment without accompanying budget cuts has ballooned the city’s education spending to approximately $39,000 per student, making NYC the most lavishly funded urban district in the country.

CPS’ Manley High School, an 1,176-capacity school has just 78 students enrolled. Seventy percent are chronically absent, having missed 10% or more days of school with or without an excuse. The school has 32 full-time equivalent staff and a student to “certified staff” ratio of 5-1. Yet only 3% of 11th grade students met state standards in reading on the SAT in 2023 and none in math. Only 35% of the students who remain at the school graduate within four years and only 5% enroll in postsecondary education.
