Youth County-Op Charter School

Summary:

Youth County-Op Charter School is an elementary school serving 775 students in grades K-8 in Hialeah, Florida, which is part of the Miami-Dade school district. Despite serving a predominantly Hispanic and economically disadvantaged student population, the school consistently outperforms the district and state averages on a variety of standardized tests, including EOC exams, Statewide Science, and FAST assessments for English Language Arts and Math.

The school's academic performance is particularly noteworthy, with 89% proficiency in EOC Biology 1 in 2023-2024, compared to 70% for Miami-Dade and 67% for Florida. While the school has seen an increase in chronic absenteeism, reaching 23.1% in 2022-2023, this rate is still lower than the nearby schools, such as West Hialeah Gardens Elementary School and Bob Graham Education Center. Additionally, Youth County-Op Charter School has a significantly higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 73.09% to 84.94% in recent years, compared to the nearby schools, which have rates ranging from 42.59% to 77.87%.

The school's consistent academic performance, despite serving a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, suggests that it is effectively supporting its students and implementing successful educational strategies. However, the school's statewide ranking has declined over the years, from a high of 378 out of 2,064 Florida elementary schools in 2013-2014 to 986 out of 2,256 in 2023-2024, which could be due to the school's increasing chronic absenteeism rates or other factors affecting its overall performance compared to other schools in the state. The steady increase in spending per student at Youth County-Op Charter School, from $8,437 in 2019-2020 to $10,977 in 2022-2023, may be contributing to the school's academic success and ability to support its student population.

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.
