Summary:
Provident Charter School is the sole middle school serving grades 2-8 in the Provident Charter School district in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. With an enrollment of 323 students, the school has struggled academically, ranking in the bottom 15% of Pennsylvania middle schools and earning a 1-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Provident Charter School's academic performance, as measured by PSSA test scores, is significantly below the state average across all grades and subjects. In 2024-2025, only 11.6% of students were proficient or better in Math, compared to the state average of 41.7%, and just 12.1% were proficient in English Language Arts, compared to 48.5% statewide.

Despite the school's high per-student spending of $31,916 and low student-teacher ratio of 4.7 to 1, Provident Charter School has struggled to translate these resources into strong academic outcomes for its students. The data suggests the school may need to implement significant improvements and interventions to address its persistent academic challenges and better serve its student population.
