KIPP Bayview Academy

Summary:

KIPP Bayview Academy is a public charter middle school in San Francisco, CA, serving 199 students in grades 5-8. However, the school has consistently underperformed, ranking in the bottom quarter of California middle schools over the past 5 years.

KIPP Bayview Academy significantly lags behind state averages on standardized tests, with only 23.3% of students proficient or better in ELA and 12.72% in Math, compared to state averages of 47.04% and 35.54% respectively. The school also has extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching 46.3% in 2022-2023, nearly 10 percentage points higher than the next closest nearby school, Everett Middle. Additionally, KIPP Bayview serves a very high-need student population, with 88.44% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023, significantly higher than the nearby schools.

While KIPP Bayview has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.7, this does not seem to translate into stronger academic outcomes. The nearby schools with higher student-teacher ratios, such as Aptos Middle and Lipman Middle, generally outperform KIPP Bayview on test scores, despite serving student populations with much lower rates of free/reduced lunch eligibility. Overall, KIPP Bayview Academy appears to be struggling significantly compared to both state averages and nearby San Francisco Unified public schools, indicating that it is not effectively meeting the educational needs of its students.

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.
