Summary:
The State Specialty Schools II- RISE Preparatory Charter School district contains only one school, RISE Preparatory Charter School, which serves grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 457 students.
Based on the available data, RISE Preparatory Charter School does not appear to be a standout school, as it has a low statewide ranking and significantly underperforms the state averages on standardized tests across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts ranged from 19.2% to 38.1%, compared to the state average of 34.9% to 43%, and in Mathematics, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 0% to 14.3%, compared to the state average of 37.3% to 49%.
The school serves a population with significant economic challenges, as indicated by the extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (99.34% in the 2023-2024 school year). While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.7 to 1, this does not appear to be translating into higher academic achievement. Overall, the data suggests that RISE Preparatory Charter School is struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students, and further investigation would be needed to identify the root causes of the school's poor performance and develop strategies for improvement.
