Summary:
There is only one elementary school located in the Global Academy district, a public charter school serving grades K-8 in New Brighton, Minnesota. With a total enrollment of 444 students, Global Academy appears to be a struggling school, ranking 529 out of 872 Minnesota elementary schools and earning a 2-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Academically, Global Academy has inconsistent performance, with some grade levels exceeding state averages in Math and Reading proficiency, while others fall significantly behind. The school's strongest performance is in 3rd grade Math, where it exceeds the state average, but it struggles in 5th and 6th grade Math, with proficiency rates as low as 9.8% and 22.22%, respectively. In Reading, the school's proficiency rates are closer to the state averages, with the highest being in 6th grade (61.11%) and the lowest in 4th grade (41.51%).
Socioeconomic factors may play a role in Global Academy's performance, as the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (91.67%). While the school's low student-to-teacher ratio of 10:1 may be an effort to provide more individualized support, it does not appear to be translating into consistently strong academic outcomes. To improve, Global Academy needs to identify the root causes of its challenges and develop targeted interventions to better serve its students and community.
