Mastery Cs-Harrity Campus

Summary:

Mastery Cs-Harrity Campus is a public charter elementary school serving 813 students in grades K-8 in Philadelphia, PA, a district ranked 503 out of 606 in Pennsylvania and with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has a predominantly African American student population (93.97%), with small percentages of Hispanic, Asian, Native American, and multiracial students.

Academically, Mastery Cs-Harrity Campus consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Pennsylvania elementary schools, with proficiency rates significantly below the state average in both Math (14%) and English Language Arts (35.2%) on the PSSA tests. The school's performance is particularly low for students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds and those with disabilities. Despite spending significantly more per student ($20,367) than the state average ($14,902), the school's academic outcomes have not improved. Nearby schools, such as Anderson Add B School and Global Leadership Academy Charter School Southwest a, also struggle academically, with proficiency rates well below the state averages.

The high dropout rate (0.5%) and the overwhelming percentage of students (98.63%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Mastery Cs-Harrity Campus highlight the significant socioeconomic challenges faced by the school and its students. While some nearby schools, like Lea Henry C School and Hamilton Andrew School, perform better academically, the persistent achievement gap between African American and other racial/ethnic groups in the region remains a concern that requires comprehensive solutions beyond just increased funding.

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.
