Resilience Charter School Inc

Summary:

Resilience Charter School Inc is a public charter middle school in Gainesville, Florida, serving 120 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Alachua District, which is ranked 43 out of 68 districts in Florida and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Resilience Charter School Inc stands out for its significantly higher percentage of African American students (46.67%) compared to surrounding schools, which range from 21.89% to 52.61%. The school has also experienced a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 4.1% in 2019-2020 to 34.9% in 2022-2023, notably higher than the 22.4% to 39.0% range of nearby schools. Academically, Resilience Charter School Inc consistently underperforms the Alachua District and the state of Florida in standardized test scores, including a 35% proficiency in Civics compared to 60% in the district and 67% statewide. Additionally, the school has a significantly higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 68.33% to 71.05%, compared to 42.37% to 60.84% at surrounding schools.

While Resilience Charter School Inc has maintained a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, its statewide ranking has declined from 698 out of 1,099 Florida middle schools in 2018-2019 to 930 out of 1,196 in 2023-2024. Interestingly, another charter school in the Alachua District, Alachua Learning Academy Middle, consistently outperforms Resilience Charter School Inc in test scores and statewide rankings, despite serving a smaller student population. These factors suggest that Resilience Charter School Inc faces significant challenges in supporting its predominantly low-income, African American student population and improving academic outcomes.

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.
