Dr Lena Edwards Academic Charter School

Summary:

Dr Lena Edwards Academic Charter School is an elementary school in Jersey City, New Jersey, serving 380 students from kindergarten to 8th grade. The school faces significant challenges, with a student population that is predominantly African American, consistently low academic performance, and high rates of chronic absenteeism.

Compared to the surrounding public schools, such as Joseph H. Brensinger School, Rev. Dr. Ercel F. Webb School, and Chaplain Charles Watters School, which also struggle academically, Dr Lena Edwards Academic Charter School's performance is particularly concerning. The school consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of New Jersey elementary schools, with its students, especially African American and special education students, performing significantly below state averages. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate has steadily increased, reaching 37.1% in the 2021-2022 school year, which is much higher than the state average.

Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio, the issues at Dr Lena Edwards Academic Charter School appear to be more complex than just a lack of resources. The school's challenges likely stem from a combination of socioeconomic factors, ineffective resource allocation, and the need for a comprehensive improvement plan to address the root causes of the school's struggles and provide a high-quality education for all its students. As part of the Jersey City Public Schools district, which is ranked 567 out of 615 districts in New Jersey, the school's performance reflects the broader challenges facing the district and the need for systemic change to support the academic success of all students.

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.
