Compass Classical Academy Charter School

Summary:

The Compass Classical Academy Charter School district in New Hampshire operates two schools: an elementary school (Compass Classical Academy Charter School (E)) and a high school (Compass Classical Academy Charter School (H)). Both schools appear to be struggling academically, with the elementary school ranking in the bottom 5% of New Hampshire elementary schools and having extremely low proficiency rates in core subjects compared to state averages.

The elementary school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 61.29% in 2023-2024, indicating significant socioeconomic challenges. The high school also has a relatively high free and reduced lunch rate at 52.5% in 2023-2024. Both schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios, which could suggest issues with resource allocation and support for student learning.

Overall, the data suggests that the Compass Classical Academy Charter School district is facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. The lack of transparency, with the high school not reporting any test score data, raises further concerns about the accountability and performance of these schools. Targeted interventions and a closer examination of the underlying issues may be necessary to improve student outcomes in this district.
