Public High Schools
Choosing a high school for your child is a personal decision and can be very subjective. While some parents may feel high test scores and graduation rates are a top priority, others believe small class sizes and AP/IB participation are a deciding factor.
Our team conducted extensive research using such resources as the New York State Education Department, National Center for Education Statistics, U.S. News & World Report, and incomebyzipcode.com to pull together the criteria that most parents feel is important when choosing a school or school district. We have placed this in an easy-to-follow chart so you, our readers, can review and determine what school is right for your student or see where your school falls compared to others in Westchester.
For SAT scores, we compiled the numbers from 2024, as they are the latest available.
For private schools, we reached out to each individual school and collected the information included in the chart.
