Summary:
The Young Women's College Prep Charter School is the only high school located within the Young Women's College Prep Charter School District in Rochester, New York. This public charter school serves grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 352 students.
The school's performance across key metrics is concerning, as it consistently underperforms compared to state averages. Its four-year graduation rate of 84.3% is below the state average, and its dropout rate of 4.5% is higher than the state average. Additionally, the school has a significantly higher chronic absenteeism rate of 31.5%, indicating a struggle to keep students engaged and attending regularly. The school's test scores on state assessments and Regents exams are also consistently lower than the state averages across all subject areas and grade levels.
Despite spending $17,233 per student, which is higher than the state average, and having a student-teacher ratio of 11:1, which is lower than the state average, the school is still underperforming. This suggests that the resources may not be effectively allocated or utilized to support student learning. Furthermore, the high percentage of students (90.06%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch indicates that the school serves a population with significant economic disadvantages, which can create additional barriers to academic success that the school needs to address.
