Elementary Schools in East Brooklyn Ascend Charter School (Ebacs)


Summary:

East Brooklyn Ascend Charter School (EBACS) is the sole elementary school located in the East Brooklyn area, serving students from grades K-4. Despite its small student population of just 113 students, EBACS has emerged as a standout performer, outpacing the state average in academic metrics and ranking in the top third of New York elementary schools.

EBACS has demonstrated strong academic performance, with 62.5% of 3rd graders proficient or better in English Language Arts (ELA) and 56.3% proficient or better in Math, compared to the state averages of 42.6% and 41.2%, respectively. The school's statewide ranking of 763 out of 2,445 elementary schools and its 3-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger further highlight its success. Additionally, EBACS spends a relatively high $25,280 per student, which may contribute to its academic achievements.

However, EBACS also serves a predominantly low-income community, with 96.46% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This context is important in understanding the school's performance and the resources and support needed to ensure continued student success. While EBACS has shown stronger results in 3rd grade ELA and Math compared to 4th grade, the small school size may allow for more personalized attention and support, which could be a factor in its academic success.
