In 2024, students at Millennium High School who sat the SAT averaged 1279 out of 1600 — 640 on Math and 639 on Reading and Writing. That is 300 points above the 979 averaged across the 461 New York City high schools that reported a score that year. Within Manhattan, where the average is 1034, it is 245 points higher. Citywide it ranks 12 of 548, inside the top fifty. In Manhattan it is 5 of 140.
Across 8 measured years, the school's average went from 1285 in 2017 to 1279 in 2024, down 6 points. The peak was 1294 in 2018 and the floor 1193 in 2022, a spread of 101 points. Citywide the average moved down 37 points over the same span, so relative to the rest of New York this school is ahead by 31 points.
The sharpest single move came between 2021 and 2022, when the average dropped 91 points in one year. Its place in the citywide order has hardly changed: 16 of 453 in 2017, 12 of 461 in 2024.
The 2024 figure is the average of 140 students at this school who actually sat the exam — not of the whole graduating class. Of those test takers, 91% on Math and 94% on Reading and Writing cleared the College Board's college-readiness benchmark.
The highest average in Manhattan that year belonged to Stuyvesant High School, at 1497, 218 points ahead of Millennium High School. A gap of that size is real, and it is the kind of distance targeted preparation is normally asked to close.

“Tested” is the number of students the DOE counted in that year’s average, not the size of the class. “College ready” is the share of those students who met the College Board benchmark on that section. A dash means the DOE published no figure for that year; nothing here is estimated.
