Summary:
Legacy College Preparatory Charter School is the sole school in the data set, serving grades 6-12 in the Bronx, New York. As a public charter school, it is part of the Legacy College Preparatory Charter School District, which is ranked 702 out of 874 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
While the school has a relatively low statewide ranking, placing 1041 out of 1234 New York high schools in the 2024-2025 school year, it does outperform the state average in some subject areas and grade levels, such as 6th grade ELA proficiency. However, the school underperforms the state in other areas, like 8th grade math proficiency. The school's Regents exam performance is also mixed, with some subjects seeing proficiency rates above 50% but others well below the state averages.
Legacy College Preparatory Charter School faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with 88.12% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This high-need population may be contributing to the school's relatively low academic performance, 84.3% 4-year graduation rate, and high 31.5% chronic absenteeism rate. While the school is outperforming the state average in some areas, it has room for improvement, particularly in addressing the needs of its high-poverty student population and improving attendance and engagement.
