Summary:
Genesee Community Charter School-Flour City Campus is the sole elementary public charter school serving grades K-4 in Rochester, New York, with a total enrollment of 118 students. While the school's statewide ranking places it in the middle of New York elementary schools, its academic performance shows a mixed picture, with strengths in 4th-grade English Language Arts (ELA) but lower-than-average proficiency in 3rd-grade ELA and 4th-grade Math.
The school's 4th-grade ELA proficiency rate of 70.97% is significantly higher than the New York state average of 54.07%, indicating strong performance in this subject and grade level. However, the 3rd-grade ELA proficiency rate of 44.83% and the 4th-grade Math proficiency rate of 46.67% are both lower than the state averages of 54.15% and 58.64%, respectively, suggesting potential areas for improvement. With a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (44.07%), the school appears to serve a student population with greater socioeconomic needs.
Despite its mixed academic performance, Genesee Community Charter School-Flour City Campus stands out for its focus on providing additional resources and support for students, as evidenced by its higher-than-average spending per student ($20,023) and low student-teacher ratio of 10:1. This personalized approach may contribute to the school's strengths in certain subject areas and grade levels, and could be an area of focus for continued improvement across all grades and subjects.
