Summary:
Summit Academy Charter School is the only school in the provided data set, a public charter high school serving grades 6-12 in Brooklyn, New York, with a total enrollment of 256 students. Based on the available information, the school appears to be underperforming academically compared to state averages, with consistently lower proficiency rates on both the New York State Assessments and Regents exams across multiple subject areas and grade levels.
The school's 4-year graduation rate of 84.3% is below the state average, and its chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5% is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the school is ranked 1101 out of 1234 New York high schools for the 2024-2025 school year, with a 1-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger. These metrics suggest that Summit Academy Charter School is struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students.
The school serves a predominantly low-income student population, with 91.02% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite this high-need student population, the school's per-student spending for the 2023-2024 school year was $23,333, which is higher than the state average. The school's student-teacher ratio of 7.7 is also lower than the state average, suggesting that the school may not be effectively allocating its resources to improve student outcomes. Further analysis and investigation would be needed to identify the root causes of the school's performance issues and develop strategies to address them.
