Summary:

With a total enrollment of 775 students, the school's academic performance has been inconsistent, with some grade levels exceeding state averages in English Language Arts and Math, while others fall significantly below.
The school's test scores on the New York State Assessments show areas of strength and weakness. In English Language Arts, the school's proficiency rates are above the state average in grades 4, 6, and 8, but below average in grades 3, 5, and 7. In Math, the school's proficiency rates are above the state average in grades 3 and 4, but below average in grades 5, 6, 7, and 8. The school's 5th-grade Science proficiency rate is also below the state average. However, the school's Regents exam proficiency rates are above the state average in Algebra I but below average in Living Environment.
Growing Up Green Charter School II has seen its statewide ranking decline over the past few years, from 1,229 out of 2,445 elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 1,624 out of 2,439 in 2022-2023, indicating the school is losing ground compared to its peers. Despite the high per-student spending of $22,395, it is unclear if this is translating into improved academic outcomes. The lack of data on the school's free/reduced lunch rate for the 2023-2024 school year also makes it difficult to draw conclusions about the socioeconomic status of the student population.
