2750 LAFAYETTE AVENUE

At a Glance

A full K-12 school where every student has an IEP, serving a high-need community with exceptional family trust and zero suspensions

Best suited for

Families with children who have IEPs or learning differences and value a school with exceptional family-teacher relationships and a philosophy of keeping students in class. Best suited for families who prioritize trust and relationship quality over traditional academic benchmarks and who appreciate having all grades K-12 in one building. Particularly appropriate for families who want a smaller school feel (634 students) in a stable, residential Bronx neighborhood.

What stands out
  • 100% of students have IEPs — this is a specialized school serving students with diverse learning needs
  • Zero suspensions — the school has eliminated out-of-school discipline entirely
  • Perfect parent trust scores — 97% parent-teacher trust and 98% parent-principal trust
  • 100% of parents report 'strong relationships' with the school
  • Full K-12 grade span under one roof — rare in the district
Things to consider
  • No ELA or math proficiency data available — parents cannot compare academic performance against district averages
  • Teacher instruction quality perception (80%) falls below the district average of 88%
  • This is a high-need school with 90.3% economic need index — families should understand the student population profile
  • 100% IEP population means specialized services are central to the school's mission — may not be the right fit for families seeking a traditional general education setting
  • Survey data is from 2025 and represents a specific moment in time

Based on 2025 data

School SummaryDistrict 8

Among District 8 peer schools, P.S. X010 does not have a comparable quality rating since peer schools include charter schools and other traditional schools with different grade spans. The district includes high-performing schools like Success Academy Bronx 4 (96/100) and several schools in the 66-75 range. Without test score data, positioning this school within the district hierarchy is difficult, but the strong family trust metrics and innovative discipline approach suggest a school that prioritizes relationship-building over punitive measures.

AcademicsLimited data

Test score data was not available for this school, but the average class size of 22.6 students closely mirrors the district average of 22.5, indicating typical staffing levels. With 100% of students having Individualized Education Programs (IEPs), this school clearly operates as a specialized setting serving students with diverse learning needs. The absence of published ELA and math proficiency data makes it difficult to directly compare academic performance against district benchmarks of 46% ELA and 48% math.

Culturestrong

The survey data reveals a school with exceptional family trust and remarkably positive school climate. Parent satisfaction sits at 92%, with nearly unanimous trust in both teachers (97%) and the principal (98%). Every single parent respondent reported 'strong relationships' with the school — a perfect score. Teachers report feeling reasonably safe (91%, above the 88.9% district average) and express solid trust in their principal (87%). The most notable achievement: zero suspensions, meaning the school has found alternative approaches to discipline that keep students in class. Teacher instruction quality perception (80%) lags the district average of 88%, which may reflect the challenges of serving a 100% IEP population.

Community

The student body is predominantly Hispanic (60%) with significant Black enrollment (29%), reflecting the neighborhood demographics. A 57% diversity index indicates moderate demographic variety. With an economic need index of 90.3% — well above typical levels — this school serves families facing substantial financial hardship. The community is clearly engaged, with 238 families completing surveys and strong relationships reported across the board. Homeownership in the neighborhood sits at 48.4%, suggesting a mix of renters and owners, and 18.2% of households have children.

NeighborhoodThrogs Neck-Schuylerville

Throgs Neck-Schuylerville in the Bronx is a stable, residential neighborhood with a median household income of $85,113 and a relatively low poverty rate of 14.9%. The area scores highly on stability (90th percentile) but only moderately on family density (51st percentile) and education orientation (53rd percentile). Safety scores at 61.69 indicate some concerns, and the neighborhood has elevated rates of childhood asthma and lead exposure risk. Transit access is moderate (44th percentile). The median home value of $581,443 suggests a working-class to middle-class community.

The neighborhood is primarily residential with moderate walkability. Families typically arrive by foot from surrounding blocks or by car, given the moderate transit scores. The school's K-12 structure means families with multiple children can have all their kids in one building, simplifying logistics.
