Brooklyn Navy Yard STEAM Center

Test score data was not provided, so direct academic performance comparisons to the district average of 53% ELA and 46% math aren't possible. The school does report teacher instruction quality at 88%, which aligns with the district average of 88%, suggesting teachers are delivering solid instruction even if proficiency data is missing.

The school reports zero suspensions — notably lower than the district average of 1.4% — which suggests either very effective behavior management or a student body with minimal disciplinary issues. Teacher-reported safety comes in at 96%, matching the district average. Parent satisfaction sits at 91%, also on par with district norms. These indicators point to a school where families feel heard and students are generally well-supported.

The school serves pre-K through 8th grade, covering a wide span from young children to early teenagers. The Brooklyn Navy Yard itself is an unusual neighborhood — largely industrial and commercial rather than residential — which means the student body likely comes from surrounding neighborhoods in District 13. Class sizes average 21.2 students, identical to the district average.

The Brooklyn Navy Yard is a transformed industrial waterfront area — once a naval shipyard, now home to creative agencies, manufacturers, and tech startups. It's not a traditional residential neighborhood, which explains why demographic data shows zero for many metrics. Safety scores are moderate at 72, while transit accessibility is low at 30, meaning most families will need to drive or take a bus. The area has low family density, reflecting its commercial character.

This is not a walkable residential neighborhood. Most families will commute by car or public bus, and the area has some industrial traffic. Parents should factor in transportation time when considering this school.
