Summary:
PRIDE Prep Charter School District consists of a single public magnet charter high school, PRIDE Prep School, serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 504 students. As the only school in the district, PRIDE Prep stands out as a unique educational option, offering a specialized curriculum and program.
PRIDE Prep School has a predominantly White student population (66.67%), with significant representation from Hispanic (16.27%) and students of two or more races (12.3%). The school's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is generally below the state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics, though its science proficiency rates are higher than the state average. The school's four-year graduation rate is relatively high at 92.9%, and its dropout rate is low at 2.3%. However, the school's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 214th out of 442 high schools in 2022-2023 to 272nd out of 437 high schools in 2023-2024.
Notably, 61.31% of PRIDE Prep School's students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high proportion of students from low-income families. The school's per-student spending for the 2021-2022 school year was $28,096, and the student-teacher ratio for 2022-2023 was 15.7. These factors suggest that the school may face challenges in addressing the academic needs of its diverse student population, and the district and school administration may need to focus on improving student outcomes, particularly in core subjects like English and Mathematics.
