Empowerment Academy Charter School

Summary:

Empowerment Academy Charter School is a public charter school in Jersey City, NJ, serving 1,002 students in grades K-9. The school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 64.12% to 70.86% over the past three school years, and has also experienced a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate, between 16.6% and 21% during the same period.

Empowerment Academy's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, lags behind nearby high-performing charter schools. For example, in 2023-2024, the school had a 45.7% proficiency rate in 3rd grade math, compared to the state average of 47.6%, and a 25.6% proficiency rate in 5th grade math, compared to the state's 40.1%. This pattern holds true for English Language Arts as well. Despite having a lower spending per student ($8,106 in 2018-2019) compared to nearby charters like TEAM Academy ($11,261), Great Oaks Legacy ($13,707), and North Star Academy ($10,058), Empowerment Academy's academic outcomes are lagging behind.

Interestingly, Empowerment Academy is located just 1.22 miles away from Regional Day School, a public alternative school that serves a high-needs population with a 66.2% free/reduced lunch rate and a very low 7.1 student-teacher ratio. The proximity of these two schools serving similar demographics could present opportunities for collaboration and shared best practices. As Empowerment Academy looks to improve its academic performance, it should examine the strategies and practices of its higher-performing neighboring charter schools to identify ways to better support its students and drive better 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.

I also am surprised by the rating on this website and I would like to know how the rating was derived. My scholar attends this school and I can personally attest to the level of growth she has had this year. Not only is the school well run but the teachers are caring and are very good educators. The curriculum is also very impressive. Close Quote

I have no idea where these rankings came from but this school is stellar! The work they are doing is above grade level and on par or exceeds with any suburban school in the state. They focus on the whole child - socially and academically. They offer the core subjects of math and ELA as well as performing arts, technology, visual arts, gym and Spanish in their regular curriculum. Additionally, they have added a gifted and talented program and a host of after school enrichment activities ranging from sports (basketball, soccer), dance, guitar, robotics, yoga and math league. Their core values really instill a sense of purpose and responsibility in the students. My kid is scoring at the 99th percentile nationally on the standardized tests and absolutely loves going to school. I don't know what they could possibly be missing! Close Quote

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.
