Summary:
Aspire Berkley Maynard Academy is the sole elementary public charter school serving grades K-8 in the Aspire Berkley Maynard Academy District. The school has consistently performed below the state average on standardized tests, with proficiency rates ranging from 25-40% in English Language Arts and 9-37% in Mathematics across different grade levels. Science proficiency, as measured by the CAST exam, is also significantly below the state average, with only 8-15% of students scoring proficient or better.
Aspire Berkley Maynard Academy has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 71.7% in the 2022-2023 school year. The school's chronic absenteeism rate for the same year was 35.0%, which is significantly higher than the state average. These factors suggest that the school may be serving a disadvantaged population, which can contribute to academic challenges and may require targeted interventions and support.
Given the school's consistently low performance and high rates of poverty and absenteeism, there appears to be a significant need for improvement in order to provide a high-quality education for the students at Aspire Berkley Maynard Academy. Strategies to address these issues, such as targeted academic interventions, family engagement programs, and attendance-boosting initiatives, may be necessary to improve educational outcomes for the students.
