SHSAT 2026: registration October 6–30; the test is November 14–15 (School Day November 18, 9th grade November 21).

In 2026 admissions, 18 eighth graders at Nuasin Next Generation Charter School applied to high school. The number who sat the SHSAT was 5 or fewer, a count the DOE does not publish, so no participation rate can be given for that year. Its eighth grade is smaller than most in the charter sector: 147th of 167, against a median of 44.

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 the case at 159 of the 170 schools listed in the charter sector for 2026.

The number of testers went from 21 in 2022 admissions to 10 in 2025, down 11. The sharpest move came between 2022 and 2023, when it fell by 12. The eighth grade itself shrank from 54 to 18 over the same years, so part of that movement is the size of the class, not the share sitting the test.

In the charter sector, the most offers in 2026 admissions went to students from Success Academy Charter School - Hell's Kitchen (36), out of 157 published for the charter sector as a whole. The DOE’s file lists every charter school under district code 84, whatever its borough, so the comparison here is with other charter schools across the city, not with the neighborhood.

The DOE has listed this school under other names: “Nusain Next Generation Charter School” (2022, 2023). The figures above follow the school code, 84X461, which did not change.

“2026 admissions” means students who sat the SHSAT as eighth graders in the 2025-26 school year and received offers for fall 2026, as in the DOE’s Fall 2026 SHSAT and Discovery Summary. “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.

What to do with these numbers

Your child is in 8th grade now

Registration closes October 30. Test day: November 18.

November 18 is the SHSAT School Day; the weekend sittings are November 14/15 and November 21. Whatever the count at Nuasin Next Generation Charter School, the decision to sit the test is yours, and a scored official practice test tells you more about your own child than any school figure.

Dates read on schools.nyc.gov on October 19, 2026.

Your child is in 6th or 7th grade

A 7th grader sits the SHSAT in fall 2027; a 6th grader, in fall 2028.

The test comes in the fall of 8th grade, so there is no deadline yet, and that is the point: starting now leaves time to work on reading and math at a steady pace instead of in the last weeks. The counts above show what happened at Nuasin Next Generation Charter School, not where your child stands. We start with a scored official practice test, which does.

Your child is in 5th grade

Middle school applications are open until December 11.

Start with how many families applied for each seat last year: the DOE publishes it program by program. The middle school you choose is also where the SHSAT years happen, so ask the schools on your list how many of their students sit the test and how they prepare them.
