But aggregating compliance rates at this level of geography can mask important distinctions at the neighborhood level.  \nBecause funding allocations to reduce class sizes are tied to current compliance rates, districts that are further away from the cap and have available classroom space are likely to receive more funding, regardless of economic need. Indeed, we find that high need citywide (as measured by the Economic Need Index, or ENI) pairs with higher compliance rates and lower per pupil funding, and vice versa. In practice, this means that the districts where students could most benefit from additional resources are receiving less per pupil funding.  \nTo inform local trends in class size compliance rates, we have compiled data at the state senate and assembly district level. State policymakers can use these data to understand which districts and which students may be receiving more funding or less funding than they need based on their district’s economic need. We find that the citywide trend of higher-need neighborhoods having higher compliance rates tracks strongly at the senate and assembly district level, with borough-wide data in some cases masking stark disparities between senate or assembly districts.  \nTABLE A.1  \nClass Size Compliance and Funding, by New York State Senate District  \nSenate  \ndistrict Schools Students  \nNonexempt  \nclasses Compliance  \nMean  \nENI  \nTotal funding for class size compliance  \nPer pupil funding for class size compliance  \n\n| 10 | 52 | 24,369 | 4,001 | 66.0% | 0.803 | $18,107,748 | $743 |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| 11 | 52 | 35,702 | 6,167 | 56.4% | 0.626 | $23,006,600 | $644 |\n| 12 | 41 | 32,784 | 6,282 | 71.5% | 0.749 | $28,897,125 | $881 |\n| 13 | 36 | 29,096 | 4,236 | 48.8% | 0.851 | $12,128,408 | $417 |\n| 14 | 51 | 28,090 | 4,204 | 60.1% | 0.715 | $20,682,636 | $736 |\n| 15 | 41 | 33,430 | 5,563 | 47.3% | 0.699 | $18,198,986 | $544 |\n| 16 | 48 | 44,758 | 7,373 | 53.2% | 0.679 | $22,888,787 | $511 |\n| 17 | 38 | 30,833 | 3,703 | 55.9% | 0.817 | $10,153,395 | $329 |\n| 18 | 63 | 23,698 | 4,464 | 73.5% | 0.868 | $16,488,864 | $696 |\n| 19 | 76 | 25,114 | 4,761 | 72.1% | 0.884 | $15,165,107 | $604 |\n| 20 | 58 | 22,374 | 4,019 | 74.1% | 0.746 | $14,219,351 | $636 |\n| 21 | 40 | 22,087 | 3,850 | 62.3% | 0.788 | $13,310,323 | $603 |\n| 22 | 30 | 30,513 | 4,487 | 53.9% | 0.814 | $11,419,642 | $374 |\n| 23 | 54 | 34,134 | 5,329 | 61.7% | 0.828 | $16,794,866 | $492 |\n| 24 | 43 | 40,431 | 6,284 | 43.4% | 0.517 | $24,157,687 | $598 |\n| 25 | 69 | 19,572 | 3,440 | 77.0% | 0.842 | $9,135,977 | $467 |\n| 26 | 65 | 42,578 | 6,478 | 64.1% | 0.680 | $23,546,416 | $553 |\n| 27 | 66 | 27,717 | 5,322 | 70.3% | 0.703 | $19,520,081 | $704 |\n| 28 | 26 | 12,405 | 2,373 | 45.8% | 0.445 | $4,757,974 | $384 |\n| 29 | 85 | 31,388 | 5,811 | 73.2% | 0.903 | $11,724,455 | $374 |\n| 30 | 48 | 15,875 | 3,125 | 76.5% | 0.869 | $7,417,380 | $467 |\n| 31 | 74 | 27,838 | 5,024 | 79.0% | 0.888 | $12,685,425 | $456 |\n| 32 | 112 | 37,680 | 7,838 | 79.9% | 0.960 | $22,440,587 | $596 |\n| 33 | 65 | 37,014 | 6,569 | 62.7% | 0.893 | $16,123,646 | $436 |\n| 34 | 46 | 21,793 | 3,912 | 61.4% | 0.867 | $10,497,532 | $482 |\n| 36 | 38 | 16,847 | 2,972 | 62.8% | 0.848 | $15,485,634 | $919 |\n| 47 | 56 | 27,331 | 5,968 | 72.4% | 0.654 | $20,492,045 | $750 |\n| 59 | 54 | 29,692 | 6,458 | 62.7% | 0.691 | $18,506,956 | $623 |\n\nSource: New York City Public Schools administrative data, 2024–25.  \nNote: ENI = Economic Need Index  \nAt the senate district level, districts with ENIs above 0.90 average 76.6 percent compliance, compared with 55.7 pe","cbCaihlFxk7RVYj4","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihlFxk7RVYj4","pdf",929517,"English","# Compliance patterns and funding linkage\n## Economic Need Index (ENI) and per-pupil funding\n## Senate district analysis (Table A.1)\n## Assembly district analysis (Table A.2)","[{\"question\":\"How does class size compliance vary across New York City?\",\"answer\":\"Compliance with the maximum class size requirement varies substantially across the city’s five boroughs, and citywide aggregation can hide neighborhood-level distinctions.\"},{\"question\":\"Why can higher need districts receive less per pupil funding?\",\"answer\":\"Funding allocations tied to current compliance can favor districts further from the cap with available classroom space.
