Philadelphia Hebrew Public Charter School faces significant challenges in improving academic outcomes for its students, particularly in Math and English Language Arts proficiency. In 2023-2024, only 19% of students were proficient in Math compared to the state average of 40.4%, and 27.7% were proficient in ELA compared to the state's 53%. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as students with disabilities and those from low socioeconomic backgrounds, ranking in the bottom 25% of Pennsylvania elementary schools. However, the school's African American and Hispanic students perform relatively better, ranking in the top 50% of Pennsylvania elementary schools for those subgroups.
Comparing the school's performance to nearby schools, such as Rhodes E Washington School and Wissahickon Charter School, which also perform poorly compared to the state averages, highlights the importance of context and the need for targeted interventions to address the unique needs of the student population. In contrast, some nearby schools, like Cook-Wissahickon School and Mifflin Thomas School, demonstrate significantly higher academic performance, with proficiency rates exceeding the state averages in many grade levels and subject areas.
