Center For New York City Affairs….

is out with a new report looking at small schools in the NYC area.

The report says that NYC has made a move toward smaller schools over the past few years.

The report also says that the small school rely more on the “local diploma” which is less rigorous than the state standard that is now gone.

They also say that midsized schools have the same graduation rates as large and small schools, but are more likely to have AP classes and more sports teams than small schools.

The report is data filled and a good read.
