Summary:
Intrinsic 2 Charter High School is the sole school in the data set, serving grades 9-12 in Chicago, Illinois. As a public charter school, it is part of the Intrinsic 2 Charter High School District, which is ranked 766 out of 811 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating.
Despite a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11:1, Intrinsic 2 Charter High School struggles with academic performance. The school's test scores are consistently lower than the state averages across multiple subjects and grade levels, with particularly low proficiency rates in ACT/Mathematics (12.8%) and SAT/Mathematics (5.5%) for 11th-grade students. Additionally, the school's 4-year graduation rate of 89.0% and dropout rate of 2.4% for the 2024-2025 school year indicate room for improvement in student outcomes.
The high percentage of students (88.7%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch suggests that Intrinsic 2 Charter High School serves a population with significant economic disadvantages, which may contribute to the lower academic performance. Despite the relatively high spending per student of $22,297 for the 2023-2024 school year, the school's academic outcomes have not yet reached the desired levels, raising questions about the effectiveness of resource allocation and the need to explore strategies to improve the return on investment.
