Summary:
The ALA Charlotte school district consists of a single public charter elementary school, American Leadership Academy Charlotte, serving grades K-6 with a total enrollment of 183 students. The school's academic performance is concerning, with test scores significantly below state averages and a declining statewide ranking over the past three years.
American Leadership Academy Charlotte has a predominantly African American student population (82.51%), with a high percentage of students (74.86%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. The school's test scores are consistently and significantly below the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with proficiency rates as low as 5% in 5th grade Science. This underperformance is likely exacerbated by the school's extremely high student-teacher ratio of 183:1, making it challenging for teachers to provide individualized attention and support.
Overall, the data suggests that ALA Charlotte is struggling to provide a quality education to its students. The single school in the district, American Leadership Academy Charlotte, is underperforming academically and facing significant challenges, including a high concentration of economically disadvantaged students and an unsustainable student-teacher ratio. Substantial interventions and improvements are needed to support student learning and achievement in this district.
