Movement Charter School

Movement Charter School is the sole public charter school serving grades K-8 in the Movement Charter School district in Charlotte, North Carolina. The school has a predominantly African American student population (87.97%) and a very high percentage of students (99.53%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic disadvantage in the community.

Academically, Movement Charter School has mixed performance compared to state averages on North Carolina's End-of-Grade (EOG) tests. While the school performs better than the state in some grade levels and subjects, such as 5th and 8th grade science proficiency, it lags behind in others, particularly in mathematics and reading proficiency. The school's consistently low academic performance across multiple grade levels and subjects suggests a need for improvement in supporting student learning outcomes.

Despite the academic challenges, Movement Charter School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.5 to 1, which may be a strength in providing more individualized attention to students. However, the school's lack of diversity and high poverty levels among the student population present additional obstacles that the school may need to address to ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students.
