Background and Introduction

The independent budget office of the city of New York shall be authorized to provide analysis and issue public reports regarding financial and educational matters of the city district, to enhance official and public understanding of such matters...

New York State Education Law ? 2590-u.

In 2009, the state law granting the Mayor control of the New York City public school system was renewed. That renewal included a requirement that the New York City Independent Budget Office "enhance official and public understanding" of educational matters of the school system. The law also requires the Chancellor of the school system to provide IBO with the data that we deem necessary to conduct our analyses. That data began to flow to IBO at the beginning of the 2010-2011 school year.

This report is our second annual summary of that data. Over the course of the last year, we have issued a number of detailed analyses of student achievement, graduation outcomes, the school system's School Progress Report methodology and school funding, and we will continue to produce those types of reports. This current report is designed as a descriptive overview of the school system rather than as an in-depth look at particular issues. It is organized into three main sections. The first presents demographic information on the students who attend New York City's public schools. The next section describes the resources--budgets, school staff, and buildings--that the school system utilizes. The final section describes the measurable outcomes of the school system's efforts for particular subgroups of students.

While this report presents a great deal of information, it is not exhaustive. Some important questions cannot be answered in this type of purely descriptive format. IBO will address those issues in more detailed and analytically sophisticated reports. With the exception of the citywide budget information presented in section three, all data in this report refers to students and staff of the New York City public school system. This data does not include students or staff in public charter schools or in publicly financed private special education programs.

A Few Notes on Data Sources

With very few exceptions, the data presented herein represents IBO's analysis of individual student or staff data obtained from the Department of Education (DOE).

Since the publication of our initial Education Indicators Report, in September 2011, we have experienced a number of issues with the student biographic data provided to us by the Department of Education. Students move in and out of the school system regularly throughout the year and there were inconsistencies in the selection of students included in the data files provided to us by DOE. Shortly after beginning work on the current volume, both IBO and DOE analysts identified this issue with the data that was being provided to us for the years 2001-2002 through 2010-2011. The inconsistencies were limited to the inclusion of individual students in the data files which affected the summarized results for various student cohorts; we did not find cases with inconsistent performance data for individual students. These data issues
