However, the school faces significant challenges, including a very high chronic absenteeism rate of 50.4% and alarmingly low proficiency rates on state tests, with students performing 30-45 percentage points below the state averages in both mathematics and English language arts. The school's per-student spending of $9,081 is slightly below the state average, and it has a high student-teacher ratio of 43.5 to 1, which may contribute to the resource constraints impacting the school's ability to provide a high-quality education.
Overall, Constellation Schools: Old Brooklyn Community Elementary appears to be a chronically low-performing school with significant challenges in areas such as chronic absenteeism, academic achievement, and resource allocation. Addressing these issues should be a top priority for the school and its district to ensure students receive the education they deserve.
