Weston Preparatory Academy


Summary:

Weston Preparatory Academy is the sole elementary public charter school located in Detroit, Michigan, serving students from grades K-8. The school's student population is overwhelmingly African American, comprising 99.19% of the 248 enrolled students. However, the school's academic performance is consistently and significantly below the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with proficiency rates as low as 7.14% in 6th grade math.

Despite spending a relatively high amount of $11,903 per student, Weston Preparatory Academy struggles with an extremely high chronic absenteeism rate of 54.6%, more than double the state average. This likely contributes to the school's overall low academic achievement, as evidenced by its 1-star rating and ranking in the bottom 25% of Michigan elementary schools by Weston Preparatory Academy.

The data paints a concerning picture of Weston Preparatory Academy, suggesting that the school may need significant interventions and support to improve student outcomes and provide a high-quality education for its predominantly African American student population. The school's low performance, high absenteeism, and poor rankings indicate that families in the Detroit area may need to consider alternative educational options for their children.
