In 2025 admissions, 92 eighth graders at M.S. 935 applied to high school, and only 20 of them sat the SHSAT (22%). That is close to the 24% rate across District 19. Citywide, among public middle schools that published both counts, 37% of eighth graders sat the test. It ranks 10th of 13 in District 19 on that measure. Its eighth grade is the 6th largest of 16 in District 19, above the median of 82.
The number of its students who received an offer to a specialized high school was 5 or fewer. The DOE does not publish counts that small, so it could be any number from zero to five; this page does not guess. That is true of every school in District 19 that year.
The number of testers went from 26 in 2024 admissions to 20 in 2025, down 6.
No school in District 19 had a published offer count in 2025 admissions: every one was 5 or fewer.

“2025 admissions” means students who sat the SHSAT as eighth graders in the 2024-25 school year and received offers for fall 2025, as in the DOE’s admissions outcomes report. “8th graders” counts the school’s eighth graders who applied to high school; “took the test” divides testers by that count when both are published. The district row adds the published counts of its schools, so its offers are a floor; the city row is the DOE’s own total. “Not listed” means the school is absent from that year’s file.

Your child is in 5th grade
Middle school applications: October 14 to December 11.
The middle school you choose now is where the SHSAT years happen. These counts show how many eighth graders sit the test at each school and how many get an offer; they do not say why. Ask the schools on your list how many of their students sit the SHSAT and how they prepare them, and plan the preparation for 6th and 7th grade, not for the October of 8th.
