New Heights Charter School of Brockton (District)


Summary:

New Heights Charter School of Brockton is the sole public charter high school serving grades 6-12 in the New Heights Charter School of Brockton (District) in Massachusetts. With a total enrollment of 741 students, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Massachusetts high schools, maintaining a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school's academic performance, as measured by MCAS Next Generation test scores, is significantly below the state average across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, only 38.61% of 10th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 56.86%. In mathematics, only 32% of 10th-grade students were proficient or better, compared to the state average of 48.47%. Additionally, the school has a 89.5% four-year graduation rate, which is lower than the state average, and a 5.8% dropout rate, which is higher than the state average.

Despite the school's higher-than-average spending per student of $17,839 for the 2020-2021 school year, it is still underperforming compared to the state. This suggests that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution to improving the school's performance, and that other factors, such as how the funds are allocated and utilized, may be more important. The school's low graduation rate and high dropout rate also suggest that there may be opportunities to improve student engagement and support, particularly for at-risk or struggling students.
