Summary:
Lamad Academy Charter School is the sole middle school located in the Lamad Academy Charter School district in Brooklyn, New York. The school serves grades 6-8 and has a student population that is predominantly from low-income families, with 77.25% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year.
While Lamad Academy Charter School has some areas of strength, such as higher-than-average proficiency rates in 6th grade math and Regents Living Environment, the school's overall performance and rankings are below average compared to other middle schools in New York. The school's statewide ranking has declined over the past three years, from 1169 out of 1500 middle schools in 2022-2023 to 769 out of 1500 in 2024-2025. Additionally, the school's performance on state assessments is mixed, with some grades and subjects exceeding the state average while others fall behind.
Despite the higher-than-average per-student spending of $26,547 for the 2023-2024 school year, the school's resources may not be optimally allocated or utilized, as the performance is not consistently strong across all grades and subjects. The school could benefit from a closer examination of its curriculum, instructional practices, and resource allocation to identify areas for improvement and develop targeted strategies to boost student achievement, particularly in subjects and grades where performance is lagging.
