Urban Dove Team Charter School

Summary:

Urban Dove Team Charter School is a small public charter high school serving grades 10-12 in Brooklyn, New York, with just 210 students. Unfortunately, this school has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing high schools in New York state, with a statewide ranking between 1137-1246 out of over 1200 high schools in recent years.

The school's performance is extremely poor across multiple metrics. Its test scores are significantly worse than state and city averages, with only 18.18% of students proficient in Algebra I and 25.61% proficient in English Language Arts, compared to state averages of 31.42% and 78.55%, respectively. The school's 4-year graduation rate hovers around 30-35%, which is dismal compared to the state average of over 80%, and its dropout rate is very high, reaching 10% in 2021-2022. Additionally, Urban Dove Team Charter School has extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching over 88% in 2022-2023, more than double the state average.

Comparing Urban Dove Team Charter School to nearby high-performing schools like Midwood High School and James Madison High School, the performance gap is staggering. These larger public schools have significantly higher test scores, graduation rates, and overall academic achievement. Despite being in operation for over a decade, Urban Dove Team Charter School has shown little to no improvement in its key metrics, suggesting deep-rooted challenges that the school has been unable to address. Addressing these systemic issues will require significant intervention and support to improve educational opportunities for its students.

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.
