Great Oaks Legacy Charter School

Summary:

Great Oaks Legacy Charter School is a public charter school in Newark, New Jersey that serves over 1,600 students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade, with a predominantly African American (93.44%) and socioeconomically disadvantaged student population.

The school has seen impressive improvements in its graduation rates, increasing from 68.3% in 2017-2018 to 95.4% in 2021-2022, exceeding the state average and outperforming many nearby schools like TEAM Academy Charter School. Additionally, the school maintains a very low dropout rate, ranging from 0.0% to 0.3% over the past five years. However, the school's test scores, particularly in mathematics, are generally lower than the state averages and some of the higher-performing charter schools in the area, such as North Star Academy Charter School.

When compared to nearby schools in Newark Public School District, Great Oaks Legacy Charter School stands out for its strong graduation and low dropout rates, but faces challenges in academic achievement, potentially due to factors like lower per-student funding ($13,707 in 2018-2019) compared to some other schools in the area, such as John F. Kennedy School ($34,476 in 2018-2019). The school's demographics and socioeconomic status are reflective of the broader Newark community, and its ability to continue supporting its students and improving their academic outcomes will be crucial to its future success.

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.
