Background and Introduction

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.

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.

This report is our first annual summary of that data. Over the course of the last year, we have issued a number of detailed analyses of specific topics, 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. Moreover, we expect that future editions of this report will include more indicators as we further develop and expand the data. 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.

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).

This report presents citywide summaries of our data. For some of our indicators, school-level data is available and can be viewed for individual schools at our Web site: .

A Few Notes on Data Sources

Student Demographics and Outcomes are derived from individual student records maintained by the Department of Education and provided to IBO for each of the last 10 years. These records include basic biographical information, achievement test scores, attendance records and information on students' entry to, exit from, and movement within the school system.
