School Performance

The Department of Education (DOE) provides Progress Reports on public school performance. Each school receives a letter grade (A, B, C, D, or F) based on the academic achievement and progress of students, as well as the results of a survey completed by parents, teachers, and students.

DOE also conducts Quality Reviews of public schools. These reviews examine how well each school is creating a plan to address its students' strengths and weaknesses.

Each year, the NYC School Survey gives families, students and DOE staff the opportunity to provide feedback about their school. School leaders use feedback from the survey to reflect and make improvements to schools and programs. Survey results are also used to help measure school quality.

The 2023 NYC School Survey opened on February 13 and will close on March 31.

The survey is open to:

Parents/guardians of a child in 3-K, Pre-K or grades K-12
Students in grades 6-12
DOE staff

You can access the survey online with a survey access code, which you can obtain from your school. If you have a NYC Schools Account, you can also login and take the survey through your account without an access code.

Families are urged to complete the survey online however, you can contact your school to inquire about a paper survey.

A survey should be completed for each child a parent has in school for grades 3K through 12. Families and students who need help with completing the survey should contact their school or parent coordinator.
