Summary:
Brooklyn Dreams Charter School is the sole elementary school in the data set, serving students from grades K-8. Located in Brooklyn, New York, the school has a student enrollment of 530 and faces unique challenges due to its high poverty rate, with over 73% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.
Academically, Brooklyn Dreams Charter School shows a mix of strengths and weaknesses. While the school outperforms the state average in some areas, such as 7th grade ELA and Regents exams, it significantly underperforms in other areas, including 3rd-6th grade math and 5th/8th grade science. The school's statewide ranking has been declining over the past three years, from 1218 out of 2439 schools in 2022-2023 to 1541 out of 2445 schools in 2024-2025, suggesting it may be struggling to keep pace with other elementary schools in New York.
Despite the school's academic challenges, it invests heavily in its students, spending $21,692 per student, which is significantly higher than the state average. This suggests a focus on providing additional resources and support for its predominantly low-income student population. However, the school's high spending and declining statewide ranking indicate that more work may be needed to improve the educational outcomes for the students at Brooklyn Dreams Charter School.
