Columbus Humanities Arts and Technology Academy

Summary:

Columbus Humanities Arts and Technology Academy is a public charter elementary school serving grades K-8 in Columbus, Ohio, with a diverse student population. The school has consistently struggled, ranking in the bottom quarter of Ohio elementary schools with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, well below average test scores across all grade levels and subject areas, and varying performance among different student subgroups. While African American students perform relatively well compared to other Ohio elementary schools, Asian and English Language Learner students perform much worse. The school's enrollment has also been declining, and its per-student spending is lower than the state average, which may contribute to its challenges in improving student outcomes.

When compared to nearby schools, Columbus City Schools and other charter schools in the area, Columbus Humanities Arts and Technology Academy's performance is generally below average. Addressing the root causes of the school's struggles and leveraging the strengths of its diverse student population will be crucial in improving student outcomes and overall school 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.
