Summary:

Bronx Community Charter School is a public charter elementary school serving 459 students in grades K-8 in the Bronx Community Charter School District, which is ranked 432 out of 865 districts in New York and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bronx Community Charter School has shown strong performance in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math assessments compared to the state average, with particularly noteworthy results for African American and Hispanic students, who ranked in the top 25% and top 30% of New York elementary schools, respectively, in 2023-2024. The school's consistent improvement over time, from the bottom 25% of New York elementary schools in 2015-2016 to the top 45% in 2023-2024, suggests that its educational approach and interventions are effectively supporting student learning and growth. However, the school's performance in 8th grade ELA and Math lags behind the state average, indicating a potential area for improvement.

For example, Ps 94 Kings College School and Ps/Middle School 20 PO George J Werdan III had significantly lower proficiency rates in ELA and Math compared to the charter school, highlighting its strong academic performance.

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.
