Success Institute Charter

Public, Charter Grades K-8

Summary

Success Institute Charter is a small public charter elementary school serving around 95 students in grades K-8 in Statesville, North Carolina. The school has a predominantly African American student population, with around 78% of students identifying as such.

Despite serving a student population that is predominantly from low-income families, with 97% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Success Institute Charter has consistently underperformed academically compared to nearby Scotts Elementary, Shepherd Elementary, and other public schools in the Iredell-Statesville Schools district. The school's proficiency rates on state standardized tests range from 10% to 70% in math and 10% to 58.3% in reading, significantly lower than the state averages of 46.9% to 62.7% in math and 48.4% to 52.8% in reading.

Further analysis reveals that Success Institute Charter may be facing resource challenges, with a relatively high student-to-teacher ratio ranging from 19.4 to 26.2 over the past three school years, higher than the ratios at the nearby public schools (12.6 to 15.9). Additionally, the school's district, Success Institute Charter School District, is ranked 193 out of 242 districts in North Carolina and is rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating it is one of the lower-performing districts in the state. These factors suggest that the school may be struggling to effectively serve its student population and provide the necessary resources and support for student learning.
