Summary:
New Visions Charter High School-Adv Ma/Sci IV is the only high school located in the New Visions Charter High School-Adv Ma/Sci IV district in Jamaica, New York. This public charter school serves grades 9-12 and has a total enrollment of 425 students.
Based on the available data, New Visions Charter High School-Adv Ma/Sci IV appears to be facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. The school's four-year graduation rate of 84.3% is below the state average, and its dropout rate of 4.9% is higher than the state average. Additionally, the school has a very high chronic absenteeism rate of 34.1%. Academically, the school's test scores are generally lower than the state averages across a variety of subject areas, with the exception of English Language Arts and U.S. History.
Despite the school's higher spending per student ($22,390) and lower student-teacher ratio (10:1) compared to state averages, these factors do not seem to be translating into improved student outcomes. The high percentage of students (78.35%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch suggests that the school serves a population with significant economic disadvantages, which may contribute to the academic challenges. Further investigation into the school's teaching practices, curriculum, and support services could help identify areas for improvement and ways to better support the needs of the student population.
