Noble St Charter-Comer College Prep

Summary:

Noble St Charter-Comer College Prep is a public charter high school in Chicago, Illinois, serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 1,044 students. This school is part of the Chicago Public Schools District 299, which is ranked 688 out of 813 districts in Illinois and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Noble St Charter-Comer College Prep has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Illinois high schools, maintaining a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's performance is particularly low for male students, African American students, and students with low socioeconomic status, ranking in the bottom half or bottom third of Illinois high schools for these subgroups. However, the school performs relatively better for homeless students, ranking in the top half or top 10% of Illinois high schools for this subgroup. While the school has maintained relatively high graduation rates and low dropout rates, its chronic absenteeism and academic proficiency levels are significant areas of concern, with only 3.2% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in SAT Mathematics, compared to 18.6% for the district and 26.1% for the state.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Englewood STEM High School and YCCS-Sullivan House Alt High School, Noble St Charter-Comer College Prep has the highest chronic absenteeism rate, which is more than double the rates of some of the other schools in the area. Additionally, the school's spending per student has increased from $14,165 in 2019-2020 to $20,835 in 2022-2023, which is higher than the spending per student at some of the nearby schools, but this increased spending does not appear to have translated into improved academic outcomes.

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.
