Summary:
East Harlem Scholars Academy Charter School II is the sole elementary school serving grades PK-8 in this area, with 398 students. The school's academic performance is significantly below state averages, with proficiency rates ranging from just 8.57% in 3rd grade ELA to 58.18% in 7th grade ELA. The school has a very high poverty rate, with nearly 90% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, and is ranked in the bottom 20% of New York elementary schools with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Despite the school's high per-student spending of $27,955, the low academic outcomes suggest the school is struggling to effectively educate its high-needs student population. The school's student-teacher ratio of 8.4 to 1 indicates a relatively small class size, but the data shows the school is failing to translate this resource into improved student performance on state assessments.
Overall, the data paints a concerning picture of East Harlem Scholars Academy Charter School II, which appears to be a low-performing school that is not adequately serving the needs of its high-poverty student community. Significant improvements are needed in academic achievement, student outcomes, and overall school quality to better support the students and the East Harlem Scholars Academy Charter School II community.
