Bronzeville Academy Charter School


Summary:

Bronzeville Academy Charter School is the sole elementary school serving grades K-8 in the Bronzeville Academy Charter School District, which is ranked 706 out of 813 districts in Illinois and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. With a total enrollment of 330 students, the school faces significant academic challenges, with student performance on standardized tests well below the state average in both English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grade levels.

The school's academic struggles are compounded by a high chronic absenteeism rate of 12.8%, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, the school serves a student population with a very high percentage (95.76%) of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. Despite the school's high per-student spending of $17,450, which is above the state average, the school's student-teacher ratio of 330:1 is significantly higher than the typical recommended ratio, suggesting that the school may not be effectively allocating its resources to support student learning.

Overall, the data suggests that Bronzeville Academy Charter School is facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. Addressing the academic, socioeconomic, and resource allocation issues identified in this analysis could be crucial in helping the school improve and better support the needs of its student population.
