Panacea Prep Charter School

Q: Is Panacea Prep Charter School a good school?

Panacea Prep Charter School ranks 1098 th of 2256 Florida elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 3 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Panacea Prep Charter School is a small elementary school in Coral Springs, Florida, serving 80 students in grades K-5. The school has a predominantly African American student population, with over 90% of students identifying as such in recent years.

Panacea Prep faces several challenges compared to nearby public schools. The school has consistently higher chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 27.7% to 35.2% in recent years, compared to the 25-40% range at nearby schools. Proficiency rates on state assessments are generally lower than the Broward County and Florida averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Science, though the school's Math proficiency rates are often higher. Additionally, 100% of Panacea Prep's students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-poverty student population, compared to 45-83% at nearby schools.

Despite these challenges, Panacea Prep's performance on state assessments has been inconsistent, with the school's ranking among Florida elementary schools ranging from 656 to 1,790 over the past several years. This suggests the school may be struggling to maintain consistent academic achievement. Nearby public schools, such as Riverside Elementary and Maplewood Elementary, have more diverse student populations and generally higher academic performance, which could provide valuable insights for Panacea Prep to improve its own 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.
