Summary:
The PUC Lakeview Charter Academy District consists of a single middle school, PUC Lakeview Charter Academy, which serves a predominantly Hispanic student population in the local area. The school has consistently underperformed compared to state benchmarks, with low rankings, high chronic absenteeism, and significant equity concerns.
PUC Lakeview Charter Academy has a student population that is 89.26% Hispanic, with small percentages of other racial groups. The school's academic performance, as measured by standardized tests, is below the state average in both English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics across all grade levels. For example, in 8th grade, only 34.48% of students were proficient or better in ELA/Literacy, compared to the state average of 45.66%. The school's performance in Science is also significantly lower than the state average, with only 9.2% of 8th-grade students being proficient or better, compared to the state average of 28.76%.
The high percentage of students (89.26%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch at PUC Lakeview Charter Academy indicates a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. This, coupled with the school's consistently low rankings and ratings, raises concerns about educational equity and the ability of the school to effectively support its economically disadvantaged students. Addressing these challenges will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to identify and implement effective interventions and support strategies to improve student outcomes.
