Summary

Enterprise Charter School is a public charter elementary school serving 394 students in grades K-8 in Buffalo, NY, which is part of the Buffalo City School District. Despite spending significantly more per student than the state average, Enterprise Charter School has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of New York elementary schools, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school's academic performance is a major concern, as it significantly underperforms the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas on the New York State Assessments. For example, in 2024-2025, only 25.53% of 3rd graders were proficient in ELA compared to the state average of 54.15%, and only 36.17% were proficient in Math compared to the state average of 59.7%. Enterprise Charter School also struggles to effectively serve its subgroups, with its African American, Hispanic, special education, and economically disadvantaged students ranking in the bottom 10-20% of their respective subgroups statewide.

Interestingly, the nearby public schools, such as Bennett Park Montessori, Waterfront Elementary, and Harriet Ross Tubman Academy, also perform poorly compared to state averages, but generally outperform Enterprise Charter School across academic metrics. This suggests the broader challenges facing the Buffalo City School District. Despite the school's high spending and low student-teacher ratio, its performance has remained stagnant or declined over the past several years, with no signs of meaningful improvement.
