Summary:

CVA Fusion Middle School (6-8) is a small public charter school in Minneapolis, Minnesota, serving grades 6-8 with a student population of just 53 as of the 2022-2023 school year.

Academically, CVA Fusion Middle School (6-8) has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Minnesota middle schools, with proficiency rates below the state averages in math, reading, and science. The school's performance is particularly low for its White student subgroup and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. In comparison, nearby charter schools like Laura Jeffrey Academy Charter and public schools like Sanford Middle and Justice Page Middle significantly outperform CVA Fusion Middle School (6-8) academically.

The school's racial demographics have shifted, with a decrease in the percentage of White students and an increase in the percentage of African American and Hispanic students. This shift in racial composition is accompanied by a decline in the school's academic performance, particularly for its White student subgroup. Additionally, the school serves a population with a high percentage of students from low-income families, which may be contributing to the academic challenges the school is facing. These factors suggest that CVA Fusion Middle School (6-8) may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the educational needs of its diverse student population.

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.
