Summary

Ucp Downtown Charter is an elementary public charter school in Orlando, Florida, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 179 students. The school is part of the Orange County School District, which is ranked 32 out of 67 districts in Florida and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio and spending significantly more per student than nearby schools, Ucp Downtown Charter faces significant challenges. The school has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 30.9% to 53.9%, which is much higher than the district and state averages. Academically, the school's proficiency rates on state assessments are also significantly lower than the district and state, with only 7% of 3rd-grade students proficient in English Language Arts, compared to 59% in the district and 57% statewide. Additionally, Ucp Downtown Charter has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 55.31% to 57.83%, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students.

In comparison, nearby schools like Lake Como School, Engelwood Elementary, and Baldwin Park Elementary generally have higher academic performance, lower chronic absenteeism rates, and lower spending per student. This suggests that there may be opportunities for Ucp Downtown Charter to learn from the practices and strategies employed at these higher-performing schools to address its challenges and improve student outcomes.
