Summary:
North Saginaw Charter Academy is the sole school in the data set, serving grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 596 students. The school is part of the North Saginaw Charter Academy District, which is ranked 482 out of 613 districts in Michigan and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Based on the available data, North Saginaw Charter Academy is consistently underperforming compared to state averages in academic proficiency across multiple grade levels and subject areas, with proficiency rates ranging from 21.6% to 34.5% in English Language Arts and 16.2% to 28.2% in Mathematics. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 29.5%, which is significantly higher than the state average.
Additionally, the school serves a population with significant economic disadvantages, as indicated by the high percentage (95.47%) of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $12,961, the school's academic performance remains below state averages, suggesting that simply allocating more resources may not be the sole solution. The school may need to examine how it is utilizing its resources and explore targeted interventions and strategies to address the specific needs of its student population.
