Just 1 Black student gets into Staten Island Tech as racial gaps at specialized high schools persist

Just one Black student received an offer to Staten Island Technical High School out of nearly 300, while Stuyvesant and the High School for Mathematics, Science and Engineering also saw historically low numbers for Black students. Mayor Zohran Mamdani plans to review the admissions process, which relies on the SHSAT test, as racial disparities persist despite slight increases in Black and Latino student offers compared to previous years.
