Westchester County had the sixth highest enrollment numbers among all counties in the state during the 2023-24 school year.
The number of students in the halls of Westchester County schools grew by less than 0.1% compared to the year before.
In the 2023-24 school year, 51.5% of students were boys, and 48.5% were girls.
The most represented ethnicity among Westchester County students was white, accounting for 40.3% of the student population.
Within Westchester County, New Rochelle High School had the highest enrollment numbers in the school year, welcoming 3,072 students.
New York State has proposed a $45.8 billion education budget for 2025. This represents a $1.5 billion increase compared to the previous year. The most significant portion of this budget is allocated to schools, with a total of $35.3 billion proposed. The new budget aims to increase funds for Foundation Aid by $507 million, mainly driven by concerns over rising inflation in the U.S.
In 2022, New York had roughly one teacher for every 12 students, which is lower than the national average of one teacher for every 16 students. A lower student-to-teacher ratio has been found to improve students' school performance.
