Summary:
There is only one elementary school located in the Growth Public District, which is Growth Public. This school serves students from kindergarten through 5th grade and is situated in an area with significant socioeconomic challenges, as evidenced by the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
While Growth Public does not appear to be a standout school within the district or the state, with a relatively low statewide ranking and a 3-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger, there are some areas of concern that warrant further attention. The school has a high chronic absenteeism rate, which may be contributing to its below-average test scores in several grade levels and subject areas, particularly in English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics.
Despite these challenges, Growth Public has shown some bright spots, such as its 5th-grade ELA/Literacy proficiency rate being higher than the state average in the 2023-2024 school year. However, the overall trend of the school's declining statewide ranking over the past three years suggests that there may be opportunities for improvement in curriculum, instruction, and support for students to help address the academic performance and attendance issues.
