Executive Education Academy Charter School

Summary:

Executive Education Academy Charter School is a public charter school in Allentown, Pennsylvania that serves 1,368 students in grades K-12. While the school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 100%, it consistently underperforms the state average on standardized tests and has a lower graduation rate compared to nearby charter schools.

Academically, Executive Education Academy Charter School struggles, with proficiency rates in PSSA Math and English Language Arts that fall well below the state averages. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's math proficiency rate was 28.4% compared to the state's 40.4%, and its English proficiency rate was 42% compared to the state's 53%. The school's performance is particularly low in math, with proficiency rates ranging from 10.1% in 8th grade to 48.1% in 3rd grade. While the school's 4-year graduation rate of 87.5% for 2022-2023 is on par with nearby Lehigh Valley Academy Regional Charter School, Roberto Clemente Charter School, and Lincoln Leadership Academy Charter School, it is still lower than the state average, and its dropout rate of 1.6% is higher than the nearby charter schools.

One potential factor contributing to the school's academic struggles is its high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, as evidenced by the 100% free/reduced-price lunch rate, which is significantly higher than the nearby charter schools. Additionally, the school's inconsistent funding and spending per student, ranging from $562 in 2019-2020 to $12,828 in 2018-2019, may make it difficult to implement effective, long-term improvement strategies. Overall, Executive Education Academy Charter School faces significant challenges in academic performance, graduation and dropout rates, and socioeconomic status of its student population compared to nearby charter schools and the state average.

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.
