Summary

Storefront Academy Harlem Charter School is a small elementary school serving grades K-5 in New York City, with only 86 students enrolled. The school is part of the Storefront Academy Harlem Charter School District, which is ranked 827 out of 874 districts in New York and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite its relatively high per-student spending, ranging from $26,486 to $37,304 per student, Storefront Academy Harlem Charter School has consistently underperformed compared to the state and district averages in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency on the New York State Assessments. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's 3rd grade ELA proficiency was 35.29% compared to the state average of 54.15%, and its 3rd grade Math proficiency was 29.41% compared to the state average of 59.7%. The school's performance on the 5th grade Science assessment is also significantly lower than the state average, with only 14.29% proficient in 2024-2025 compared to the state's 45.02%. Nearby schools like PS 83 Luis Munoz Rivera and Tag Young Scholars significantly outperform Storefront Academy Harlem Charter School in both ELA and Math proficiency across all grade levels.

The school's performance on the state assessments varies greatly among different student subgroups, with female students generally performing better than male students. The school's African American students perform relatively well, ranking 425 out of 927 New York elementary schools in 2023-2024. However, the school's special education and economically disadvantaged students struggle, ranking in the bottom 20% of New York elementary schools in 2024-2025. These disparities suggest that the school faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education and ensuring equitable outcomes for all its students.
