In a few weeks, David Banks will become the next Chancellor of New York
City Schools. Unlike many of the previous Chancellors, David Banks has a
track record of running a small network of schools. Called the Eagle
Academy Schools For Young Men, there are six of these schools serving boys
from grades 6 to 12. There is one school in each of the five New York City
boroughs and one in Newark.
Before Eric Adams was the next mayor of New York City, he was the borough
president of Brooklyn. In that capacity, he worked with David Banks to
create 'The Brooklyn Nine' where Banks would share some of the best
practices from Eagle Academy to improve nine schools in Brooklyn. There is a
short documentary about Eagle Academy on HBO currently called 'The Infamous
Future' <https://eafny.org/infamous-future/> , similar to Waiting For
Superman, made a few years ago in which Eric Adams says that the practices
of Eagle Academy should be used in more schools so that they become 'The
Brooklyn 90' and then 'The Brooklyn 900' and eventually the entire school
system can replicate the success of Banks' Eagle Academies. So this gives
us some idea of what to expect in the next 4 or 8 years with Adams as Mayor
and Banks as Chancellor.
New York is home to so many news outlets like The New York Times, The Daily
News, and The New York Post. There is also something called Chalkbeat, NY,
which is a web publication that covers education in New York City. So you'd
figure that at least one of them would look up the numbers on the five
Eagle Academy schools that David Banks has been involved with, first as
principal of the original school in The Bronx in 2004, and then as CEO of
the foundation that oversees all six schools for the years since then. One
would think that this information would be relevant and people getting paid
full time to cover New York education would think, "Maybe I can see what
public data is available about these schools that have been around for the
past fifteen years." but I haven't seen anything about this. So I spent
some time immersing myself in Eagle Academies and in learning about David
Banks in general from interviews and also from the HBO documentary and will
try to report my findings in as even handed way as possible.
The first thing that struck me was that I had never heard of The Eagle
Academy For Young Men before. These are not schools that I had ever heard
touted as schools that had cracked the code to get high standardized test
scores or high college acceptance rates. These schools were completely off
my radar. Some people think they are charter schools and even their
Wikipedia page <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eagle_Academy_for_Young_Men>
says they are charter schools, but I've also seen more official places that
say that these are not charter schools, so I'm not even 100% about this.
David Banks did write something for The74
<https://www.the74million.org/article/we-need-to-teach-young-men-of-color-differently-that-starts-with-books-where-they-are-celebrated/>
(generally not a good sign) where he said "Our schools have pioneered a
revolutionary, self-affirming approach to educating young men of color, and
the numbers speak for themselves. For the 2018-19 school year, 98 percent
of our seniors graduated and 100 percent were accepted to college." These
are the kinds of statistics that charter schools sometimes use to mislead
readers into thinking that nearly all the students who started in the
school have gotten into college and are in a position to be successful
there. Always relevant is what data is not shared as evidence of a school's
success. Reformers, when they are able to, like to tout test scores or, if
those aren't good enough, at least growth scores.
As always, when I present this kind of data, I want to make it clear that
I'm not the person who thinks that school quality is the same thing as test
scores and growth scores. Reformers like Bloomberg, Klein, Arne Duncan,
Michelle Rhee, and the rest have justified shutting down schools on these
narrow metrics. I don't think that bad test scores and growth scores mean,
necessarily, that the school is a 'failing' school. I taught at three such
schools that would be labelled as 'failing' and I thought the staffs at
those school were doing a very good job. On the flip side, I think that
Success Academy, despite their high test scores, are awful schools. Still,
considering that we are about to have a deputy Chancellor who subscribes to
the obsolete reformer philosophy, I need to get the data on Eagle Academies
out there publicly, if, for nothing else, to be able to point out the irony
when the deputy Chancellor starts pushing to shut down schools that are
better, at least by the metrics reformers worship, than Eagle Academies.
If anyone should be worried that I am cherry picking the data, you can go
through and look through more of the data from the publicly available data
sites I got my data from. One spot is the New York State data system
<https://data.nysed.gov/> which has data going back about 15 years for any
school. Just type 'eagle' into the search box and you will find the
different places. Another important resource is the New York City
performance dashboard <https://tools.nycenet.edu/dashboard/>. If you type
'eagle' into the search box you will get 10 results since each Eagle
Academy school is officially a middle school and a high school. Another
place is the New York City school quality snapshots
<https://tools.nycenet.edu/snapshot/2020/>, basically the school report
card where schools get a ranking between 1 and 4 on various categories.
Finally, there's the US News & World Report site
<https://www.usnews.com/education/k12/search> that has good information
about AP results and enrollment. None of these give the full picture, but
when reformers talk about being 'data driven' and they use these numbers to
declare entire schools systems as 'failing' it is useful to be able to
access the data and see what it says about schools that they claim are
succeeding.
Before I provide some specific details, let me just say that I've immersed
myself in all the data from all the schools and I can say that on average,
the schools have good reading scores but terrible math scores, terrible
growth scores, terrible advanced Regents scores, and terrible AP results. I
do think that they focus a lot of energy on reading, and I think that
reading is extremely important, but there is no denying that the rest of
their metrics are bad.
You can check the others to see if you can accuse me of cherry picking.
Here's Eagle Academy Middle School in The Bronx with their scores compared
to the district they are in and also to something called the comparison
group which are schools that, in theory, serve similar demographics.
When reformers see a school they like has low test scores, they dismiss
them and say not to look at the test scores, but at the 'growth' scores
since a school should not be penalized for their incoming students being
behind grade level. But for nearly all the Eagle Academy schools, they
have, by the growth metric, some of the worst scores in the city.
Here is a scatter plot from the NYC performance dashboard. The y-value of
the blue point is the growth score and the x-value is the percent of
students at proficient. There are 10 schools and three years for each
school. See if you can find one where the growth score is above the middle
line, there aren't many.
For the high schools, the HBO documentary would have you believe that since
98% of the seniors are accepted to college, that 98% of the seniors are
prepared for college. But if you look at the Regents scores, it tells a
different story. Looking at the 2018-2019 at the flagship Eagle Academy in
The Bronx, they did well on the ELA but the other Regents are awful. In
Algebra I, only 32% passed. In Geometry only 7 students in the show school
passed and in Algebra 2, only 3 students in the whole school passed. I'm a
math teacher and I know that Geometry and Algebra 2 are not essential for
having a successful life, but if it is something that you are learning in
school (and most students take Geometry in 10th grade and Algebra 2 in 11th
grade) it is something you should be able to at least pass if you are going
to get through some of the required courses in college.
When it comes to AP courses, US News & World Report collects that data. If
only 4% of students passed at least one AP exam, and I'm not saying the AP
test is the greatest test in the world, but to get a 3 to pass an AP is not
such an impressive feat. Some high schools can say that they could only do
so much since they didn't teach the students in middle school, but at Eagle
Academy schools, they teach them from 6th through 12th.
Based on what I saw in the HBO documentary, I think David Banks is a good
person. He is someone who truly cares about the students at his schools. He
has a passion that is clear from the different things he says in the
interviews. I think I would get along with David Banks. I can't say this
with certainty, but I would guess that David Banks is not a fan of Success
Academy. He knows by how stubborn the test and growth scores at his own
schools have been that the only way Success Academy has kept its test
scores so high is by various forms of cheating. He mentions in the HBO
documentary that his schools take the Black boys that other schools try to
get rid of. Surely he knows that the attrition rate for Black boys at
Success Academy is well over 50%. When I called Eagle Academies
'Unsuccessful' in my title, I was trying to show a contrast between schools
like Success that have high scores but are bad schools in my mind compared
to Eagle Academy schools that could very well be opposite of Success
Academy schools -- low test scores but maybe are good schools.
David Banks knows, as well as anyone, that test scores and growth scores do
not tell the full picture of a school. There are good schools with low test
scores and there are bad schools with low test scores. Eagle Academy
schools seem, at least from what I've seen, to be good schools with low
test scores. Since Banks is hiring a protege of Michelle Rhee, Dan Weisberg

all about him), to be his #2, I have to wonder how this will play out. If
they are going to return to labelling 25% of the schools as 'failing' based
on test scores and growth scores and they are going to try to close down
those schools, could Banks be in the awkward position of closing down some
of his own schools?
As always with a post like this, I'm going to be criticized for minimizing
the hard work of the teachers and the students at the Eagle Academies. I
truly have no bad feelings for the students and teachers at the Eagle
Academies. If they want to reach out to me, I would be willing to help them
improve their math instruction. And if David Banks who is soon to be my
bosses, bosses, bosses, boss, I also offer my help if he wants it.
