Middle Schools in MAEF Public Charter Schools

The MAEF Public Charter Schools district in Alabama operates a single middle school, Acceleration Preparatory Academy, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's performance is significantly below average compared to other middle schools in the state, with low test scores, high rates of economic disadvantage, and a lack of improvement over time.

Acceleration Preparatory Academy has a predominantly African American student population, with 87.45% of students identifying as African American. The school's test scores are alarmingly low, with only 2.94% of 6th-grade students proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to the state average of 31.56%. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students (79.92%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student body.

Despite the challenges faced by Acceleration Preparatory Academy, the data suggests that the school is not a standout performer within the MAEF Public Charter Schools district or the state of Alabama. With a statewide ranking of 410 out of 442 middle schools and a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, the school is clearly struggling to provide its students with the necessary academic support and resources to achieve proficiency. Addressing the underlying issues, such as the socioeconomic challenges faced by the student population, will be crucial in driving improvement and ensuring that all students at Acceleration Preparatory Academy have the opportunity to succeed.
