Summary:
Broome Street Academy Charter High School is the sole school in the Broome Street Academy Charter High School District, which serves grades 9-12 in New York City. The school has a total enrollment of 270 students and faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its student population.
Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8:1, it consistently underperforms the state average across a wide range of metrics, including graduation rates (84.3% vs. state average), dropout rates (4.9% vs. state average), and test scores (significantly lower than state averages in all subject areas). The school's high percentage of students (83.33%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch suggests that it serves a population with significant economic disadvantages, which may contribute to its low academic performance.
While the school's per-student spending of $29,224 is significantly higher than the state average, this investment does not appear to be translating into better academic outcomes for students. This raises questions about the efficiency and effectiveness of the school's resource allocation and teaching practices. Overall, the data indicates that Broome Street Academy Charter High School is facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students, and addressing these challenges will likely require a multi-faceted approach that addresses both academic and socioeconomic factors.
