United Charter High School for Advanced Math and Science lll

The data provided does not include school-level ELA, math, or science proficiency results, so direct academic outcomes can't be interpreted here. The school's stated focus is "advanced math and science," but without test scores in the dataset, families should ask to see recent Regents and state proficiency data during a visit. The district context here is District 22 (Brooklyn), where ELA and math proficiency average around 61%, and peer charters like Success Academy Bergen Beach are scoring notably high.

The day-to-day feel here is shaped by an unusual trust pattern: parents overwhelmingly trust teachers (96%) and the principal (93%), and teachers rate their own instructional quality at 96% — well above the district average of roughly 90%. However, teacher-to-principal trust lands at 83%, noticeably lower than the parent side, which suggests some friction between staff and leadership even as families feel well-served. With 211 family survey responses against a 294-student body, parents here are unusually engaged. Discipline and attendance data weren't included, so those areas warrant direct questions.

Three-quarters of the student body is Black, with smaller Hispanic (12%) and Asian (8%) populations and a notably low white enrollment (2%) — a mirror of the working-class southern Brooklyn community the school sits in. The 70.9% economic need index tells you most families here are navigating real financial pressure. The neighborhood's median household income of about $79,582 and 13% poverty rate confirm a middle-income, mostly homeowner area, but the student body skews more economically vulnerable than its surroundings.

The school anchors a residential pocket of southern Brooklyn where just under 18% of households include children, homeownership is high at roughly 53%, and about 43% of adults hold a bachelor's degree — a stable, family-rooted area with a mix of long-time residents and newer arrivals. Median home values near $722,000 put this solidly in middle-class territory, but the area still has working-class and immigrant roots that show up in the school's demographics.

The school is a roughly 20-minute walk from the Neck Rd Q train, so most families likely rely on car, bus, or school transportation rather than the subway.
