Public Charter
Public Charter Public Charter How is this school type different:
Charter schools are independent from schools in St. Louis Public Schools (SLPS) and have a variety of enrollment types. Some are open to any child living in the city, whereas others may require the student to live in the school’s established attendance zone.
How to enroll in this school type:
This varies with different charter schools. Some charter schools require an application and may run a lottery for a limited number of seats each year. Other charter schools may allow walk-in enrollment. Charter schools will have a different application, lottery, and enrollments then SLPS magnet schools.
Who runs this school type:
Charter schools are run by independent boards that are accountable to their charter sponsor and the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE). Charter schools independently operate outside of SLPS. They receive state funding and are required to give the same state assessments as schools in SLPS.

Missouri Assessment Program
Why is this useful?
The Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) is useful to track student performance in core subjects. Students in grades 3-8 and high school are assessed in English, Math, and Science.
What does this number mean?
Student performance results are split into four levels: Below Basic, Basic, Proficient, and Advanced. School performance is shown as a percentage of students who are Proficient or Advanced.
Where is this data from?
For more information visit the School Report Card at the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education website.

About this data - Academic Growth
Why is this useful?
Academic growth scores are useful for comparing how much students progress relative to where they started.
What does this number mean?
Academic growth is calculated by comparing the progress of an individual to his or her academic peers across a state or city region.
Academic growth is calculated by comparing the progress of an individual student to his or her academic peers across the state. Scores of 50 indicate that the average student in this school is maintaining the status quo; scores above 50 indicate the average student is learning more than his or her peers statewide; and scores below 50 indicate that the average student is falling behind his or her peers statewide.

Bullying Incidents
Why is this useful?
The rate of bullying allows us to compare levels of hostility across different schools, regardless of school size.
What does this number mean?
The ratio shows reported instances of bullying in relation to the number of students. E.g. a ratio of 1:502 suggests that 1 in every 502 students experiences bullying.
Where is this data from?

Why is this useful?

What does this number mean?
Suspensions: This shows the number of student removals from school for disciplinary reasons per 100 students.
Where is this data from?

Why is this useful?

What does this number mean?
This figure represents the average number of students per classroom teacher in the school. It can be interpreted as an estimate of average class size.
Where is this data from?
