District 25 PRE-K Center

Standardized proficiency data is not reported for this pre-K center, which is typical for early childhood sites where state ELA and math assessments don't apply to four-year-olds. What we can see is that the average class size of 24.7 is right at the district average of 24.7, so children here aren't getting noticeably smaller groups than peers across District 25. Beyond that, the academic outcomes for a pre-K site are usually measured in school-readiness indicators rather than the proficiency rates shown for elementary and middle schools.

School-level attendance, parent satisfaction, and teacher survey data were not provided for this site, so the day-to-day feel is harder to read from numbers. The small enrollment of 192 students suggests a setting where families and teachers are likely to develop close relationships over the pre-K year. With 10% of students having IEPs, this is a setting that includes children with a range of learning needs alongside typically developing peers.

The student body here is 57% Hispanic, 29% Asian, 11% White, and 3% Black, with an economic need index of 42.8 — middle-of-the-road for District 25 and reflecting a mixed-income enrollment rather than a high-poverty or affluent one. The surrounding neighborhood, College Point, has a median household income around $89,000 and a 9.5% poverty rate, with about 23% of households including children — so the kids walking in often look like the neighborhood around them. The 59% diversity index suggests a community where multiple languages and cultures are part of the daily fabric.

College Point is a middle-income, family-oriented corner of northeastern Queens with a median home value around $855,000 and just over half of residents owning their homes. The neighborhood has a notable Asian-American presence alongside a Hispanic majority, and about a quarter of households include children under 18, which keeps the school-age population steady. It's the kind of place where most errands require a car — quiet residential blocks rather than a bustling commercial strip.

This school is beyond walking distance of any subway station, so families will need to plan for bus travel, a car, or a stroller-walking commute rather than relying on the train.
