HOPE Online Learning Academy High School

Summary:

HOPE Online Learning Academy High School is a public charter high school serving grades 9-12 in Englewood, Colorado, which is part of the Douglas County School District. However, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-20% of Colorado high schools over the past decade, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

HOPE Online Learning Academy High School significantly underperforms compared to the district and state averages on standardized tests, with only 3% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in SAT Mathematics in 2023-2024, compared to 45% in the district and 31% statewide. The school also struggles with low graduation rates, ranging from 41.6% to 56.8% over the past four years, well below the district and state averages. Correspondingly, the school has high dropout rates, ranging from 8.0% to 11.9% over the past four years, significantly higher than nearby high-performing schools like Highlands Ranch High School and Chaparral High School.

The data suggests that HOPE Online Learning Academy High School would benefit from targeted interventions and support to address the specific needs of its student population, such as improving attendance, providing additional academic and social-emotional support, and strengthening the online/hybrid learning model. The school's unique challenges as an online/hybrid learning institution may be contributing to its poor performance metrics, and addressing these issues will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to support the needs of its students.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
