John Rex Charter Elementary School excels in English Language Arts (ELA), with students outperforming the state average in proficiency across all grade levels. The school's 3rd grade students, in particular, performed exceptionally well, with 43% proficient or better in ELA compared to the state average of 27%. However, the school's math proficiency rates were more mixed, with 3rd and 4th grade students performing above the state average, but 5th through 8th grade students performing below the state average. In science, 8th grade students at John Rex Charter Elementary School performed better than the state average, with 43% proficient or better compared to the state's 36%.

Despite these strengths, the school faces some challenges. Its chronic absenteeism rate of 19.0% is higher than the state average, and over 50% of its students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high proportion of economically disadvantaged students. The school's spending per student of $7,664 in the 2018-2019 school year is a relevant data point, but without more context on district or state averages, it's difficult to draw conclusions about the adequacy of funding. Overall, John Rex Charter Elementary School appears to be a strong-performing school within its district, with particular strengths in ELA and science, but with room for improvement in math proficiency and attendance.
