Summary:

The Metro Schools Charter district in Minnesota has only one elementary school, SET Academy Elementary, which serves a predominantly African American and low-income student population. With an enrollment of 331 students, SET Academy Elementary stands out for its highly concentrated racial makeup, with over 99% of students identifying as African American, and its high poverty levels, with nearly 98% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, SET Academy Elementary has a mixed performance, with higher reading proficiency compared to the district and state averages, but more inconsistent results in math and science. While the school's 3rd and 4th-grade math scores exceed the benchmarks, its 5th-grade math and overall science proficiency lag behind. This suggests potential areas for improvement, particularly in strengthening the school's math and science instruction.

One significant challenge facing SET Academy Elementary is its extremely high student-teacher ratio of 99.6 to 1, which indicates staffing challenges and could impact the quality of instruction and student outcomes. Despite these challenges, the school appears to be serving a unique and underserved population within the Metro Schools Charter district, and further analysis of its strategies, resources, and community engagement could provide valuable insights to support its continued development and success.
