Summary:
Intellectus Preparatory Charter School is the sole middle school located in Mount Vernon, New York. Serving grades 6-8, the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past three years, dropping from 539 out of 1,500 New York middle schools in 2022-2023 to 1,158 out of 1,500 in 2024-2025. While the school's performance on some state assessments and Regents exams is on par with or exceeds the statewide averages, its proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math are generally lower than the state averages.
The school's per-student spending for the 2022-2023 school year was $36,550, which is significantly higher than the statewide average. However, it is unclear how these resources are being utilized and whether they are translating into improved student outcomes. The data set does not provide detailed information about the school's student demographics, such as race, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status, but it does indicate that the school has a low percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, at 3.45% in 2023-2024.
Overall, Intellectus Preparatory Charter School faces challenges in maintaining its academic performance and statewide ranking, and the school's leadership may need to focus on improving student outcomes in core subjects like English Language Arts and Math. The high per-student spending and the school's demographics suggest that further investigation is needed to understand the factors contributing to the school's performance and identify areas for improvement.
