Christel House Academy West's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (14.29%) and Math (17.31%) for all grades are less than half the state averages, and the school's performance is particularly low in 3rd grade, where only 7.27% of students are proficient in ELA, compared to the state average of 40.3%. The school also struggles with low proficiency rates in Science (15.04%) and 5th grade Social Studies (5.36%). Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8%, which is significantly higher than the state average.
Despite the school's academic challenges, it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14:1, which is generally considered a positive factor for student learning and support. However, the school serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, with 66.8% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which likely contributes to the school's academic struggles and may require additional resources and targeted interventions to support student learning and success.
