Summary:
Philadelphia Hebrew Public Charter School is the sole elementary school in the data set, serving grades K-5. Located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the school faces significant academic challenges, with consistently low test scores and rankings compared to state averages.
The school's enrollment stands at 489 students, and it is ranked 565 out of 606 districts in Pennsylvania, with a 0 out of 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. Over the past three years, the school has been ranked between 1320-1364 out of 1511-1534 elementary schools statewide, earning a 1 out of 5-star rating. Academically, the school struggles, with only 13.8% of students proficient in Math and 18.2% proficient in ELA, compared to state averages of 41.7% and 48.5%, respectively. While 4th-grade Science proficiency is higher at 54.7%, it still falls short of the 77.1% statewide average.
Despite the low academic performance, the school spends a relatively high amount per student at $16,918, and has a small student-teacher ratio of 13.2 to 1. However, these resources do not appear to be translating into better outcomes for students, as the school serves a population with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating high levels of economic need. The combination of low test scores, high poverty levels, and high spending per student suggests that the Philadelphia Hebrew Public Charter School faces significant challenges in providing a quality education to its students.
