Summary:
Scuola Vita Nuova is a public charter school district in Kansas City, Missouri, serving students in grades K-8 at a single school, Scuola Vita Nuova Charter. With a diverse student population of 405 students, the school faces significant academic challenges, as evidenced by its consistently low test scores across all grade levels and subject areas compared to the state average.
Despite the school's diverse racial makeup, with 43.46% African American, 43.21% Hispanic, 9.14% White, and 3.21% Asian students, the academic performance of the student body is not reflecting this diversity. This suggests potential challenges in addressing the unique needs of different student groups. Additionally, a high percentage (73.58%) of Scuola Vita Nuova Charter students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
The Scuola Vita Nuova District is ranked 299 out of 376 districts in Missouri and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, further highlighting the challenges faced by the district and the school. The school's relatively low ranking within the district and the state, combined with the high poverty levels of the student population, may indicate challenges in accessing adequate resources and support to improve academic outcomes.
