P.S. 041 Francis White does not appear in the DOE's 2025 file. Its most recent figures are from 2022 admissions, which is what this page leads with. In 2022 admissions, 26 of the 40 eighth graders at P.S. 041 Francis White who applied to high school sat the SHSAT: 65%, more than half the grade. Across District 23 the rate was 41%, so this school sits 24 points above it. Citywide, among public middle schools that published both counts, 36% of eighth graders sat the test. It ranks 2nd of 10 in District 23 on that measure. Its eighth grade is smaller than most in District 23: 10th of 13, against a median of 49.
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 23 that year.
2022 is the only year this school appears in the DOE’s file.
No school in District 23 had a published offer count in 2022 admissions: every one was 5 or fewer.

“2022 admissions” means students who sat the SHSAT as eighth graders in the 2021-22 school year and received offers for fall 2022, 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.

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.
