Summary:
Brooklyn Excelsior Charter School is the sole school in this data set, serving students in grades K-8 in Brooklyn, New York. As a public charter school, it provides a unique educational option for the local community, though its performance has been mixed in recent years.
The school serves a high-need population, with over 80% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. While some grade levels perform above the state average on ELA and Math assessments, others lag behind, suggesting inconsistencies in the quality of instruction across the school. Additionally, the school's ranking among New York elementary schools has declined over the past three years, from 1234 out of 2439 in 2022-2023 to 1785 out of 2445 in 2024-2025, indicating that its performance is not keeping pace with other schools in the state.
Despite relatively high per-student spending of $19,030, Brooklyn Excelsior Charter School has struggled to translate this investment into consistently strong academic outcomes. The school's challenges may be exacerbated by the high percentage of low-income students it serves, highlighting the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique needs of its student population.
