UP Academy Charter School of Boston

Summary:

UP Academy Charter School of Boston is a public charter middle school serving 213 students in grades 6-8 in South Boston, MA. The school has consistently underperformed compared to state averages and other nearby schools in the area.

Academically, UP Academy struggles, with only 13.51% of students proficient or better in ELA and 15.54% in Math, compared to state averages of 39.17% and 40.91% respectively. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups. Despite spending significantly more per student ($21,476 in 2020-2021) than the state average, UP Academy has a relatively high student-teacher ratio of 5.7, suggesting the additional funding may not be translating into smaller class sizes or improved instruction. Surrounding schools in the Cambridge and Boston areas, such as Putnam Avenue Upper School and Vassal Lane Upper School, significantly outperform UP Academy on academic measures.

The persistent underperformance of UP Academy, with the school consistently ranking in the bottom quartile of Massachusetts middle schools over the past decade, suggests the school may be facing systemic challenges in effectively educating its predominantly minority and economically disadvantaged student population. Addressing these issues will require a comprehensive review of the school's instructional practices, resource utilization, and overall strategy to better support the academic success of its students.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

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.
