Schools where no single group is a majority, and families rate them highly in New York City
Public and charter schools where no one student group is half the enrollment and family satisfaction is at or above the city's median.
How we chose these
- No student group makes up 50% or more of enrollment (Asian, Black, Hispanic, White, multiracial and Native American, from the city's school demographics).
- Family satisfaction on the 2025 NYC School Survey at or above the median of rated schools.
- At least 30 family responses, so a tiny sample doesn't qualify.
