About Schools in Brooklyn, New York

Brooklyn runs 570 ranked public schools — one of the largest single-borough systems in the country. The average score sits at 6.0 out of 10, reflecting a wide spread across performance levels. Exactly 185 schools, or 32%, score 7 or higher. That means roughly one in three schools clears that bar, giving parents real choices while making the search work matter.

At the top, Collegiate Academy–Math–Personal AWA earns a 9.8 — the highest score in the borough. Brooklyn Emerging Leaders Academy Charter School follows at 9.7, and Brooklyn Prospect Charter School (CSD 15) scores 9.6. The elementary tier peaks with Maurice Sendak Community School at 9.3. For high school, Urban Assembly Institute of Math and Science for Young Women earns a 9.2. These top performers span charter, district, and specialized program formats — no single pathway defines high performance here.

Charters dominate the elite tier. Four of the five highest-rated schools are charter or specialized academies, most requiring a lottery or application. The spread across grade levels is meaningful: standouts exist at elementary, middle, and high school stages, but they're not clustered geographically. Brooklyn's scale — more than 70 distinct neighborhoods — means a 9.8-rated school may sit well outside your zone. Travel time is a real variable that scores alone won't resolve.

For parents actively searching: the 32% rate of 7-plus schools means viable options exist across most of the borough. Start with the top-rated schools in your child's grade band, confirm enrollment type (lottery, zoned, or screened), and map the commute from your address. The gap between the 9.8 ceiling and the 6.0 borough average is real and significant. In Brooklyn, looking past the nearest school almost always pays off.
