RISE Preparatory Charter School

Summary:

RISE Preparatory Charter School is an elementary school serving grades K-8 in Atlanta, Georgia, part of the State Specialty Schools II district, which is ranked 191 out of 203 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating.

Based on the data, RISE Preparatory Charter School is struggling academically, with consistently low proficiency rates on the Georgia Milestones Assessments across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 3rd grade English Language Arts, only 9.3% of students were proficient or better, compared to the state average of 38.4%. The school also serves a high-need, economically disadvantaged student population, with the district reporting a 100% free/reduced lunch rate. While the specific student-teacher ratio is not provided, the district-level data suggests RISE Preparatory may face resource constraints.

Interestingly, the nearby Resurgence Hall Charter School significantly outperforms RISE Preparatory, with 73.3% of 3rd graders proficient or better in Math compared to RISE Preparatory's 16.3%. Even the traditional public schools in the area, such as College Park Elementary and Deerwood Academy, outperform RISE Preparatory on state assessments. Additionally, the high-spending SLAM Academy of Atlanta charter school does not see strong academic results despite its significant per-student funding.

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.
