Pratt Academy

Summary:

Pratt Academy is a public high school located in Spokane Valley, Washington, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 101 students. Despite being part of the Spokane School District, which is ranked 131 out of 249 districts in Washington, Pratt Academy consistently ranks among the lowest-performing high schools in the state.

Pratt Academy's academic performance is significantly below the state and district averages. In the 2022-2023 school year, only 38.24% of Pratt Academy students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 52.86% statewide and 49.64% in the Spokane School District. The school also struggles with high dropout rates and low graduation rates, with a 29.4% dropout rate and a four-year graduation rate of only 64.7%, significantly lower than the state average of over 80%. Additionally, Pratt Academy has a very high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 88.12% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

While Pratt Academy has a relatively diverse student population, its performance is significantly lower than that of nearby high schools, such as University High School and Ferris High School, which are ranked much higher in the state and have better academic outcomes, graduation rates, and test scores. These challenges suggest that Pratt Academy may face significant obstacles in terms of resources, funding, and support for its students, which likely contribute to the school's poor academic performance and high dropout rates. However, the school's diverse student population and the Spokane School District's overall ranking indicate that there may be opportunities for improvement with targeted interventions and additional resources.

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.
