Manhattan Charter School II

Manhattan Charter School II is the sole elementary public charter school serving grades K-5 in this area, with a total enrollment of 99 students. The school's student population is predominantly Hispanic (54.55%) and African American (42.42%), with small percentages of other racial groups. While the school's spending per student is relatively high at $25,282, its academic performance is significantly below the state-wide averages across all grade levels in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency.

Compared to the state-wide averages, Manhattan Charter School II has lower ELA proficiency rates, ranging from 28.57% in Grade 3 to 45% in Grade 5, versus the state averages of 44.89% to 45.09%. In Math, the school's proficiency rates are even more concerning, ranging from 10% in Grade 5 to 28.57% in Grade 3, compared to the state averages of 49.69% to 53.68%. This poor academic performance is reflected in the school's low 1-star rating and ranking of 1893 out of 2439 New York elementary schools.

The data suggests that Manhattan Charter School II is struggling to provide its students with a high-quality education, despite the relatively high spending per student. Further investigation may be needed to understand the root causes of these academic challenges and identify potential areas for improvement to better serve the diverse student population in this community.
