At a Glance

A screened arts and STEM magnet where nearly every parent gives top marks — but academic proficiency data is missing

Best suited for

Families who value arts-STEM integration and a screened, structured environment; parents who prioritize high teacher trust and minimal disciplinary issues over published test score transparency; families willing to navigate admissions for a spot; those who can manage a potentially longer commute from across the district.

What stands out
  • 100% parent satisfaction — nearly every family gives top marks
  • Zero suspensions — discipline is handled differently here
  • 100% teacher-reported instruction quality — well above the 89% district average
  • 100/100 program richness score — AP, robotics, documentary film, VR, and competitive sports
  • Screened admissions with 147 applicants for 104 seats — competitive entry
  • 23% IEP population served on-site — inclusive programming
Things to consider
  • No academic proficiency data available — families can't compare ELA/math scores to district averages
  • Smaller teaching staff (25 survey responses) means less teacher voice in the data
  • Attracts applicants from across the district — commute may be longer for some families
  • Screened admissions mean not every child who applies gets in
  • Economic need (85%) is high relative to surrounding Park Slope affluence — the school serves a different population than the neighborhood

Based on 2024-2025 data

School SummaryDistrict 15

District 15 includes some of the city's highest-performing schools, like P.S. 172 Beacon (95/100) and Success Academy Charter School - Cobble Hill (95/100). Cyberarts doesn't have a comparable quality score since proficiency data is missing, but in the dimensions we can measure — parent satisfaction, teacher trust, discipline — it outperforms or matches district averages. The lack of test score transparency makes precise positioning difficult, but the survey data suggests this is a well-functioning school with strong community buy-in.

AcademicsSteady

Academic proficiency data is not provided in this dataset, so direct comparison to the district's 65% ELA and 63% math averages isn't possible. What we do know: this is a screened school with 147 applicants competing for 104 seats, suggesting a academically motivated student body. The school offers AP Courses and a rich humanities curriculum, though the absence of published test scores means families can't benchmark student performance against nearby schools like P.S. 172 or Success Academy Charter School.

Culturemoderate

The culture and climate numbers are exceptional. Every single parent surveyed gave top marks for satisfaction (99%), trust in teachers (100%), and trust in the principal (100%). Teachers report 100% instruction quality — far above the district average of 89%. There were zero suspensions last year, and the teacher-reported safety rate of 96.7% matches the district average. The trade-off: only 25 teachers completed the survey (versus 216 families), so the teacher voice represents a smaller slice. Still, 90% teacher-principal trust and 83% collegial trust among staff suggest a functional, respectful workplace.

Community

The student body is majority Hispanic (52%) and Black (32%), with smaller Asian (6%) and white (8%) populations — notably more diverse than the surrounding Park Slope neighborhood, which is predominantly white and affluent. The diversity index of 63% reflects this mix. With 85% economic need and 23% IEP students, the school serves a meaningfully higher-need population than the affluent neighborhood around it, suggesting it draws students from beyond Park Slope's wealthy core.

NeighborhoodPark Slope

Park Slope is one of Brooklyn's most family-friendly neighborhoods, with a 97th percentile family density score and 82% of residents holding a BA+. The area has excellent transit (79th percentile) and is packed with parks, restaurants, and child-friendly businesses along Flatbush Avenue and Fifth Avenue. Safety scores (37th percentile) are lower than many parent expectations — crime density is notable — but the neighborhood feel is generally welcoming during daytime hours.

Students commute from across District 15, so walkability depends on where families live. Those in Park Slope, Boerum Hill, or Windsor Terrace can walk; others take the subway or bus. The 7th Avenue location is near the F/G trains at Seventh Avenue and the R at Fourth Avenue.
