While Rochester Prep Charter School 3 faces significant challenges in serving its high-needs student population, as evidenced by its lower-than-average test scores, particularly in English Language Arts, the school appears to be performing better than the nearby Rochester City School District schools. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate was 18.28%, compared to just 2.56% at the nearby School 8-Roberto Clemente. The school also performs better in Math, with 6th and 7th grade proficiency rates exceeding the state average.

Rochester Prep Charter School 3 has a very high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 70.77% in 2020-2021 to 90.95% in 2022-2023, indicating a high concentration of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. However, the school appears to be performing relatively well in serving its homeless student population, ranking 231 out of 766 elementary schools in the state in 2023-2024 for this subgroup. The school's performance for low-income students is more mixed, with a ranking of 1173 out of 2078 elementary schools in 2023-2024, but a higher ranking of 572 out of 2041 in 2022-2023.

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.
