Summary:
Global Preparatory Academy is the sole elementary school serving grades PK-8 in the Global Preparatory Academy district in Indianapolis, Indiana. With a total enrollment of 701 students, the school's performance metrics, particularly its test scores, are significantly below the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, suggesting it is struggling to provide a quality education to its students.
The school's proficiency rates in ILEARN English Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies are consistently lower than the state averages, with only 20.37% of students proficient in ELA and 18.1% proficient in Math, compared to state averages of over 40% in these subjects. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% and a high percentage of students (70.61%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant challenges in serving its student population.
Despite the school's poor academic performance, it is spending more per student ($12,813) than the state average, raising questions about the effectiveness of the school's resource allocation. Furthermore, the school's statewide ranking and SchoolDigger rating of 1 out of 5 stars suggest that it is performing poorly compared to other elementary schools in Indiana, and the lack of significant improvement over the past few years indicates a need for further investigation and support to address the school's challenges and improve outcomes for its students.
