Summary:
Success Academy at Boys and Girls Club is the sole elementary public charter school serving grades K-5 in South Bend, Indiana, with a total enrollment of 89 students. The school has consistently struggled academically, with proficiency rates well below the state averages in core subjects like English Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 0% to 20%, placing it in the bottom 3% of Indiana elementary schools.
The school serves a high-poverty student population, with 75.28% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year. Despite a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 7.4 and higher per-student spending of $11,203, the school's academic performance remains a significant concern. This suggests that the school may need to re-evaluate its instructional practices, curriculum, and overall educational approach to better support the unique needs of its student population and improve learning outcomes.
While the data set does not allow for direct comparisons to other schools, the consistently low performance of Success Academy at Boys and Girls Club within the Success Academy at Boys and Girls Club district highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to address the school's academic challenges and ensure that all students have access to a high-quality education.
