King Center Charter School


Summary:

King Center Charter School is the sole elementary school serving grades K-8 in the King Center Charter School District located in Buffalo, New York. With a total enrollment of 412 students, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom 15% of New York elementary schools over the past few years, indicating persistent academic challenges.

Despite spending $16,343 per student, which is relatively high, King Center Charter School struggles to meet state academic standards. The school's proficiency rates on the New York State Assessments are significantly below the statewide averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with only 20.93% of 3rd-grade students proficient in ELA compared to the state average of 42.6%. This trend is consistent in math and science as well.

With nearly 96% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, King Center Charter School serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, which can present unique challenges. Addressing the persistent academic challenges and supporting the needs of the school's student population could be key focus areas for improvement.
