Summary:
The Citizenship And Science Academy Of Rochester Charter School is the sole elementary school located within the Citizenship And Science Academy Of Rochester Charter School district. Serving students from grades K-4, the school faces significant challenges, as evidenced by its low academic performance and socioeconomic factors.
The school's statewide ranking for the 2024-2025 school year is 2104 out of 2445 New York elementary schools, with a 1-star rating out of 5. Its proficiency rates on the New York State Assessments are significantly below the state averages, with only 17.86% of 3rd-grade students proficient in English Language Arts compared to the state average of 54.15%, and 37.5% of 3rd-grade students proficient in Math compared to the state average of 59.7%. This underperformance is also reflected in the school's 4th-grade proficiency rates, which are also below the state averages.
Notably, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 85.82% in the 2023-2024 school year, indicating a student population facing socioeconomic challenges. While the school's per-student spending of $12,161 is relatively high, it does not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes, raising questions about the effectiveness of the school's resource allocation. The school's performance has also declined from the 2023-2024 school year to the 2024-2025 school year, suggesting a concerning trend that warrants further investigation and targeted strategies to improve student outcomes.
