Urban Pathways K-5 College Charter School is the sole elementary public charter school in this area, serving students from kindergarten through 5th grade in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Based on the available data, this school is significantly underperforming compared to other elementary schools across the state, with consistently low academic proficiency rates and a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past three years.
The school has a very high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (99.36%), indicating a high-poverty student population. Despite spending $16,818 per student, the school's academic outcomes are still very poor, with proficiency rates in math, science, and English language arts well below the statewide averages.
