Summary:
The Aspire College Academy District in Oakland, California, consists of a single elementary public charter school, Aspire College Academy. The school serves students from kindergarten through 5th grade and faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students.
Aspire College Academy has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing elementary schools in California, with a statewide rank of 4309 out of 5862 California elementary schools for the 2023-2024 school year and a rating of only 1 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger. The school's performance is hindered by a high chronic absenteeism rate of 48.2%, significantly below-average test scores in both English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics, and a high percentage of students (90.05%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
The data suggests that Aspire College Academy needs to implement strategies to address the underlying issues contributing to its poor performance, such as improving attendance, raising academic achievement, and providing additional resources and support for students and teachers. Addressing these challenges will be crucial for the school to improve and provide a better learning environment for its students.
