Chattanooga Charter School of Excellence High faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. The school's academic performance is substantially below the district and state averages across multiple subject areas and grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, only 15.2% of students were proficient or better in Biology I, compared to 37.4% in Hamilton County and 36.5% statewide. The school's rankings for different student subgroups, such as African American and Hispanic students, are also very low, indicating significant disparities in educational outcomes.

Additionally, Chattanooga Charter School of Excellence High serves a high-need population, with a large proportion of students from disadvantaged socioeconomic backgrounds. This, combined with the school's small size, may present unique challenges in addressing the diverse needs of its students. In contrast, nearby public high schools like STEM School Chattanooga, Chatt High Center For Creative Arts, and Brainerd High School significantly outperform Chattanooga Charter School of Excellence High in academic metrics, suggesting that the charter school may need to learn from the practices and strategies of these higher-performing schools.

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.
