Summary

Philadelphia Hebrew Public Charter School is an elementary school serving 489 students in grades K-5 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The school is part of the Philadelphia Hebrew Public Charter School District, which is ranked 565 out of 606 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Pennsylvania elementary schools over the past few years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Academically, Philadelphia Hebrew Public Charter School significantly underperforms the state averages in both math and English language arts proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 13.8% of students were proficient or better in math compared to the state average of 41.7%, and only 18.2% were proficient or better in English language arts compared to the state average of 48.5%. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as male students and low socioeconomic status students.

When comparing Philadelphia Hebrew Public Charter School to nearby schools, it becomes clear that the school is an outlier in terms of academic performance. For instance, the Cook-Wissahickon School outperforms the state averages in both math and English language arts proficiency, while schools like Peirce Thomas Middle School also significantly underperform the state. The school's high poverty rates, with 99.1% to 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, suggest that socioeconomic factors may be playing a significant role in the school's academic outcomes. Additionally, the school's relatively high spending per student compared to its performance raises questions about the effective use of resources.
