Summary

Children's Aid College Preparatory Charter School is an elementary school serving grades K-8 in the Bronx, New York, with 620 students. The school consistently outperforms both the surrounding New York City Geographic District #12 traditional public schools and many nearby charter schools in academic performance.

Children's Aid College Preparatory Charter School has a strong track record of academic excellence, with 77.78% of 3rd graders proficient or better in ELA in 2024-2025, compared to the state average of 54.15%. The school's performance is particularly impressive for certain student subgroups, ranking in the top quartile of New York elementary schools for African American, Hispanic, English Language Learner, Special Education, and Low Socioeconomic Status students. For example, the school ranked 301 out of 1569 NY elementary schools for Hispanic students in ELA and 94 out of 1117 NY elementary schools for English Language Learners in ELA in 2024-2025.

The school's strong academic results are complemented by a relatively low student-teacher ratio and a significant per-student spending, suggesting a focus on providing resources to support student learning. While the school outperforms nearby traditional public schools, such as School Of Science And Applied Learning (The), which had only 15.79% of 3rd graders proficient or better in Math in 2024-2025, it also competes with high-performing nearby charter schools, such as Zeta Charter School - Bronx Tremont Park, which had an impressive 94.95% of 3rd graders proficient or better in Math in the same year.

What people are saying

by a citizen
Sunday, April 21, 2019

Children with bad behavior are enabled. They receive much attention, get to walk the halls with the deans as "detention", can be seen eating pizza and Chinese food with the life coaches. Children sneak out of classrooms, the music classes are utter chaos. Many angry parents ready to believe their children over a teacher. Parents not allowed in the building because they have gone after students or principal. Children biting. Children who need to be in other schools linger here. Read a 2013 report that teachers are "inexperienced," "do not know how to interpret scores" in order to make improvements. Not sure about degrees and teaching certificates. Close Quote
