Summary

Mott Hall Charter School is a public charter middle school serving grades 6-8 in the Bronx, New York, with a student population of 183. The school is part of the Mott Hall Charter School District, which is ranked 467 out of 874 districts in New York and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mott Hall Charter School has shown mixed performance on state assessments, with better results in math but lower English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rates compared to the state average. However, the school has performed particularly well in Regents exams, with 70% proficiency in Living Environment and 87.5% proficiency in Algebra I, significantly higher than the state averages. The school's performance varies across student subgroups, ranking higher for male students and African American and Hispanic students compared to the state, but lower for female students and English Language Learners. Mott Hall Charter School serves a predominantly low-socioeconomic student population, with over 96% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, which is significantly higher than the state average and nearby schools.

Compared to the nearby middle schools, such as Mott Hall III and Kappa, Mott Hall Charter School generally performs better in math and Regents exams, but lags behind in ELA proficiency. The school's high per-student spending, ranging from $18,102 in 2020-2021 to $31,081 in 2023-2024, and low student-teacher ratio of 12 students per teacher in 2022-2023, suggest that the school is investing significant resources into its educational program. However, the inconsistent academic performance indicates that these resources may not be translating into consistently strong student outcomes, and the school may need to evaluate the effectiveness of its instructional practices and resource allocation.
