Summary:
Manhattan Charter School II is the sole elementary public charter school serving grades 2-6 in this area, with a total enrollment of 66 students. Based on the available data, this school does not appear to be a standout performer, ranking in the bottom 20% of New York elementary schools and earning a below-average rating of 0 or 1 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger.
Despite spending a relatively high $20,487 per student, Manhattan Charter School II struggles academically, with proficiency rates on state assessments significantly below the New York state averages, particularly in math. The school's 3rd and 5th grade math proficiency rates were 0%, compared to the state averages of 59.7% and 54.16% respectively. Similarly, the school's English language arts proficiency rates ranged from 25% to 42.11% across the grade levels, well below the state averages of 50.86% to 56.61%.
With 95.45% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Manhattan Charter School II serves a high-poverty student population, which may contribute to the academic challenges the school faces. However, the school's small size of just 66 students and high per-student spending do not appear to be translating into improved student outcomes, suggesting the need for further investigation and support to address the underlying issues impacting the school's performance.
