In 2025 admissions, 82 eighth graders at Success Academy Charter School - Rosedale applied to high school and 36 of them sat the SHSAT, a participation rate of 44%. Across the charter sector the rate was 40%, so this school sits 4 points above it. Citywide, among public middle schools that published both counts, 37% of eighth graders sat the test. It ranks 60th of 139 in the charter sector on that measure. Its eighth grade is the 31st largest of 160 in the charter sector, above the median of 48.
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 153 of the 162 schools listed in the charter sector for 2025.
The number of testers went from 28 in 2024 admissions to 36 in 2025, up 8. The eighth grade itself grew from 55 to 82 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 2025 admissions went to students from Success Academy Charter School - Upper West (34), out of 124 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.

“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.
