Summary

MATCH Charter Public School is an alternative public charter school located in Boston, MA that serves grades PK-12 with a total enrollment of 1,185 students. The school has a unique district structure, as it is its own district separate from the Boston Public Schools district.

Despite MATCH Charter Public School's consistently high 4-year graduation rates, ranging from 90.5% to 91.5% over the past 3 school years, which are significantly higher than the state average of around 80%, the school's test scores on the MCAS Next Generation assessments are notably lower than the state averages across all subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 21.56% of MATCH students were proficient or better in ELA across all grades, compared to the state average of 41.53%. In math, only 22.76% of MATCH students were proficient or better across all grades, compared to the state average of 40.74%. When comparing MATCH Charter Public School to other nearby charter schools like Mystic Valley Regional Charter, Brooke Charter School, and Codman Academy Charter Public School, MATCH lags significantly behind in academic performance on the MCAS assessments.

Despite the lower academic performance on standardized tests, MATCH Charter Public School is able to maintain very low dropout rates, ranging from 1.6% to 4.1% over the past 3 school years, which is much lower than the state average. The school also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 9.4 to 9.8 over the past 3 school years, which is lower than many of the nearby comparison schools. These factors suggest the school may be effective in supporting students to complete their high school education, even if they are not achieving proficiency on state assessments.
