Despite the school's diverse student body and relatively high per-student spending of $25,490, Urban Dove Team Charter School II has struggled with significant challenges.

Additionally, the school has experienced high dropout rates, reaching 4.2% in the 2022-2023 school year, and an extremely high chronic absenteeism rate of 92.3%, both of which are much higher than the state averages. The school's academic performance, as measured by Regents exam proficiency rates, is also significantly below the state averages across multiple subjects, including Algebra I (2.04% vs. 64.62%), Earth Science (0% vs. 64.99%), and Living Environment (8% vs. 65.7%).
When compared to nearby schools, such as Longwood Preparatory Academy, Urban Dove Team Charter School II generally performs worse across key metrics, including graduation rates and academic performance. The school's challenges are particularly concerning for certain student subgroups, such as Special Education students and Homeless students, who rank in the bottom 10% of New York high schools in their respective categories. To address these issues, the school and its New York City Geographic District # 7 should consider implementing targeted interventions, improving student engagement and attendance, and closely monitoring and evaluating the school's progress to ensure continuous improvement.
