Summary:
Charette Charter School is the sole public charter high school serving grades 9-12 in the Charette Charter district in Providence, Rhode Island. With a total enrollment of 171 students, the school's performance has been consistently below the state average, ranking between 42nd and 55th out of 60-61 high schools in Rhode Island over the past few years and currently holding a 2-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Charette Charter School's academic struggles are evident across several key metrics. Its four-year graduation rate of 84.0% falls below the state average, and its proficiency rates on standardized tests like the SAT and PSAT10 are significantly lower than the state averages, with only 25% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts compared to 51.6% statewide. Additionally, the school has a very high percentage of students (95.32%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
Despite spending $15,501 per student, which is higher than the state average, and maintaining a student-teacher ratio of 14.2, slightly higher than the recommended 15:1 or lower, Charette Charter School's academic performance remains below par. This suggests that the school may not be effectively allocating its resources to support student learning, and targeted interventions and support could be necessary to improve student outcomes and provide a high-quality education for all its students.
