Summary:

Green Charter School Spartanburg is a public charter elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Spartanburg, South Carolina, with a diverse student population of over 500 students. The school consistently outperforms the School Public Charter School District and the state of South Carolina in academic proficiency, particularly in English Language Arts and Math.

One of the key factors that sets Green Charter School Spartanburg apart is its strong academic performance across different student subgroups. The school's male students, White students, and low socioeconomic status students all rank highly compared to their peers in the state, often in the top 25-30% of elementary schools. Additionally, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 13.3 to 14.3 over the past three school years, suggesting a more personalized learning environment for students. The school's decreasing free and reduced-price lunch rate, from 48.49% in 2020-2021 to 38.77% in 2022-2023, also indicates a relatively diverse socioeconomic population.

When compared to other nearby schools, such as Spartanburg Preparatory School, another charter school in the same district, Green Charter School Spartanburg stands out as a high-performing institution, with consistently higher proficiency rates in both ELA and math across most grade levels. This consistent academic performance has earned the school 4-star ratings from SchoolDigger in recent years, making it a standout choice for families in the Spartanburg area.

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.
