Summary:
Christa McAuliffe Charter School is the sole public charter middle school serving grades 6-8 within the Christa McAuliffe Charter School (District) in Massachusetts, with a total enrollment of 288 students.
While Christa McAuliffe Charter School has been ranked 257th out of 484 Massachusetts middle schools for the 2024-2025 school year with a 2-star rating, its academic performance is generally below the state averages. The school's English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rates range from 26.97% in 6th grade to 45.16% in 7th grade, compared to state averages of 41.95% and 41.54%, respectively. In Mathematics, the school's proficiency rates are even lower, ranging from 14.61% in 6th grade to 29.79% in 7th grade, well below the state averages of 41.25% and 38.88%. Similarly, the school's Science proficiency rate of 28.26% for all grades is significantly lower than the state average of 41.51%.
However, the school's 8th-grade Civics proficiency rate of 45.65% is higher than the state average of 39.16%, which is a positive finding. Additionally, the school's relatively high spending per student ($19,221) and low student-teacher ratio (8.9) suggest that the school may be investing resources in smaller class sizes and potentially more individualized instruction, though this does not seem to be translating into significantly higher academic performance compared to the state.
