Community Public Charter

Summary:

Community Public Charter is an alternative public charter school located in Stanley, North Carolina, serving grades KG-9 with a total enrollment of 607 students. The school has a predominantly white student population, with 88.14% of students identifying as white in the 2022-2023 school year.

Community Public Charter generally outperforms the state average in mathematics and reading proficiency across most grade levels, particularly in the upper elementary and middle school grades. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 5th-grade mathematics proficiency rate was 65.8%, compared to the state average of 58.1%. Similarly, the 6th-grade reading proficiency rate was 71.4%, compared to the state average of 49.5%. However, the school's performance declines in the higher grades, with 7th and 8th-grade mathematics proficiency rates falling below the state average. The school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 15.3 to 16.8 over the past three school years, which is lower than the nearby charter schools.

Compared to nearby charter schools, such as Charlotte Lab School and Pioneer Springs Community School, Community Public Charter's test scores generally outperform them in both mathematics and reading proficiency. However, other nearby charter schools, such as Lake Norman Charter and Mountain Island Charter School, have significantly higher test scores across all grade levels, particularly in the upper grades. The school's relatively homogeneous student population and lack of socioeconomic data make it challenging to fully contextualize its performance compared to other schools in the area.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
