In the 2024-25 school year, 100% of the 17 students who took the Global History Regents at Harvey Milk High School scored 65 or higher, against 73.3% across the 499 New York City public schools with a published figure.
Source: New York City Department of Education, School Quality Reports (NYC Open Data, dataset dnpx-dfnc), data updated 2026-04-09. School year 2024-25. City rates are computed by GeniusPrep from the published school figures.
On Global History, the pass rate went from 87.5% in 2017-18 (24 test takers) to 100% in 2024-25 (17), up 12.5 points. Over the same span the city rate moved from 64.1% to 73.3% (+9.2 points).
Among the 499 schools with a published Global History rate in 2024-25, Harvey Milk High School ranks 1st (tied with 10 other schools at 100%). In Manhattan it is 1st of 120.
Algebra I, Geometry, English (ELA), Living Environment / Biology, Earth Science, US History and Languages Other Than English: fewer than 15 students sat these exams here in 2024-25, so the DOE published no pass rate. The number of test takers is still shown in the table. The DOE file has no 2024-25 line at all for this school on Algebra II, Chemistry and Physics.
Harvey Milk High School is a transfer school: the DOE files it under its "High School Transfer" report, for schools that enroll students who are over-age or behind in credits. Its pass rates describe that population and are not a like-for-like comparison with a four-year high school.

n/p: not published (fewer than 15 test takers). A dash: no line for this school and exam in the DOE file that year. From 2024-25, the DOE groups Living Environment with the new Life Science: Biology exam and reports Earth Science as Earth and Space Sciences. Nothing on this page is estimated.
