Summary

Harriet Tubman Village Charter is a K-8 charter school in San Diego serving 446 students, which has recently experienced a significant and concerning drop in its statewide academic ranking.

The school's academic performance, particularly in science where only 5.94% of students are proficient, is well below state averages and lags behind many nearby schools like Hearst Elementary and Language Academy. Test scores vary dramatically by grade, and the school faces challenges with chronic absenteeism at 22.9%. It operates as its own Harriet Tubman Village Charter District, which ranks in the bottom 10% in California, while neighboring schools often belong to higher-performing districts like San Diego Unified.

Performance differs notably among student groups, with some subgroups performing much stronger than others, raising important equity considerations. The school's per-student spending is lower than some comparable schools such as Rolando Park Elementary. When compared to a similar local charter, Iftin Charter, Harriet Tubman Village Charter has lower proficiency rates. The sharp, one-year decline in rankings suggests systemic issues that likely require a comprehensive review of curriculum, instruction, and support systems.
