Innovation Charter School

Summary:

Innovation Charter School is an elementary school in Pompano Beach, Florida, serving 446 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school has a predominantly Hispanic (63.9%) and African American (30.04%) student population, with a high percentage (64.35%) of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.

While Innovation Charter School is part of the Broward school district, its academic performance lags behind nearby public schools like Palmview Elementary, Cresthaven Elementary, and McNab Elementary. The school has a significantly higher chronic absenteeism rate (25.9%) compared to the district and state averages, and its standardized test scores are generally lower across all grade levels and subject areas.

Innovation Charter School's low academic performance is reflected in its ranking, which has consistently placed it in the bottom half of Florida elementary schools, with a ranking between 1294 and 1972 out of over 2,200 schools. The school has also received low SchoolDigger ratings, ranging from 0 to 2 stars out of 5. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism rate and implementing strategies to improve student academic performance, particularly in core subject areas, could be important steps in helping the school better serve its unique student population and achieve better 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.
