Summary

Boston Renaissance Charter Public School is a PK–6 charter school in Hyde Park, MA serving 938 students, making it by far the largest enrollment among the nearby schools reviewed. It operates as its own district, Boston Renaissance Charter Public (District), which ranked 333 of 351 districts statewide in 2025–2026 (5th percentile, 0 stars). The school itself ranked 764 of 899 Massachusetts elementary schools — the 15th percentile, with 1 star. Over the past decade its annual percentile has ranged only from 14 to 24, and it has slid from 21 in 2022–2023 to 17, 16, and 15 since.

On 2025–2026 MCAS tests, proficiency was 19.91% in English language arts, 22.01% in math, and 24.30% in science, against state averages of 40.03%, 41.11%, and 40.98% — roughly 17 to 20 points below in every subject. Among nearby schools with test data, the school generally sits in the lower tier, above only Chittick Elementary School and Channing Elementary School, and below Oakdale, Tucker, Bates Elementary School, and Grew Elementary School. Spending and staffing don't explain the gap: at $22,057 per student in 2020–2021 and a student-teacher ratio of 11.1 in 2024–2025, it spends less than most nearby Boston schools but far more than Milton's Tucker ($15,253), which posts proficiency above 55% in all three subjects.

Results are uneven by grade and group. Sixth grade math is a genuine bright spot at 40.30%, only about 2.3 points below the state average, while 4th grade math is 14.41% and 5th grade science 24.30%. ELA has declined steadily, from 28.47% in 2022–2023 to 19.91% in 2025–2026. Relative to other Massachusetts schools, African American students rank at the 52nd percentile and English language learner students at the 51st — both near the state median and well above the school's overall 15th percentile. Male students (10th percentile, 0 stars), special education students (17th), and low-income students (20th) lag well behind.
