Washington Irving Evng Hs T/R @NTHS

Academic proficiency data is not publicly reported for this evening program, which is common for alternative education settings. The class size of 25.8 students mirrors the district average, indicating the school maintains typical staffing ratios despite its alternative schedule.

This school reports zero suspensions, a notably low figure that suggests a restorative or supportive approach to behavior management rather than exclusionary discipline. With teacher-reported safety at 95.3% and instruction quality at 89.8% — both very close to district averages — the day-to-day environment appears stable and conducive to learning. The absence of suspensions is particularly meaningful for an evening program that may serve students facing outside challenges.

The school serves a broad grade span (6-12), making it a unusual combined middle and high school within a single evening program. Given Gramercy’s extremely low household density with children (10%), this student body likely draws from across Manhattan rather than the immediate neighborhood. The program appears designed for students seeking alternative scheduling — potentially working students, those with family responsibilities, or those transitioning from other schools.

Gramercy is one of Manhattan’s most desirable neighborhoods — tree-lined streets, proximity to Union Square, and excellent transit access (97.7 percentile). However, it’s notably family-sparse (only 10% of households have children), and the safety score is low (17.24 percentile). The area skews highly educated (83% BA+) and affluent ($154K median income), with strong education orientation (96.93). Families here have ample access to parks, cultural institutions, and transit, though the neighborhood’s adult-oriented character means resources specifically for families with school-age children are less concentrated.

Gramercy is highly walkable and well-served by multiple subway lines (4, 5, 6, N, Q, R, W). Students and families can easily commute from across Manhattan and into Brooklyn via nearby Penn Station. The area is pedestrian-friendly despite heavy traffic on surrounding avenues.
