Summary:
There is only one middle school located in the Life Male STEAM Academy Charter School district - the Life Male STEAM Academy Charter School. This small school, with just 93 students, serves a predominantly African American (84.95%) and high-poverty (100% free/reduced lunch) student population. However, the school's academic performance is significantly below state averages, with proficiency rates ranging from just 1.3% in math to 30.4% in English language arts.
Despite spending a relatively high $22,301 per student, the school's statewide ranking of 845 out of 893 Pennsylvania middle schools indicates it is performing well below average. This raises questions about the efficient use of resources and the effectiveness of the school's programs and interventions. The school's small size could present both challenges and opportunities in terms of personalized attention and community engagement, but significant improvements are needed to provide a high-quality education to its students.
Overall, the data suggests that Life Male STEAM Academy Charter School is struggling to meet the needs of its high-poverty, minority student population. Targeted interventions and a closer examination of resource allocation and program effectiveness may be necessary to help the school improve and better serve its community.
