RISE Preparatory Charter School

Summary:

RISE Preparatory Charter School is an elementary school serving around 500 students in grades K-8 in Atlanta, Georgia, which is part of the State Specialty Schools II district. Despite having a high per-student funding of $23,458, the school consistently underperforms academically compared to the state and nearby schools.

RISE Preparatory Charter School's academic performance is significantly below average, with only 9.3% of 3rd graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 38.4%. This pattern continues across all grade levels and subject areas, resulting in the school ranking 1032 out of 1,218 elementary schools in Georgia, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. In contrast, Resurgence Hall Charter School, which is just 1.72 miles away, had significantly higher proficiency rates in 3rd and 4th grade English Language Arts (68% and 53.2%, respectively).

RISE Preparatory Charter School serves a student population that is 100% free or reduced-price lunch eligible, indicating a high-poverty student population, which is similar to many of the nearby Fulton County and Atlanta Public Schools. Despite the higher per-student funding and a focus on serving this high-poverty community, the school has not been able to close the achievement gap, suggesting that further investigation into the school's curriculum, instructional practices, and resource allocation may be necessary to identify the root causes of this underperformance and develop strategies for improvement.

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.
