Reports and Accountability
Annual Reports
The Annual Report informs the public of the recently completed academic year as it relates to the school’s accountability plan objectives, academic performance, and evidence regarding the three areas guiding the charter public school: faithfulness to charter, academic program success, and organizational viability.
DESE Report Cards
Report cards answer important questions about a school’s overall performance and contain specific information about student enrollment and teacher qualifications, student achievement, accountability, how a school is performing relative to other schools in the district and the state, and the progress made toward narrowing proficiency gaps for different groups of students.
DESE School Profile
The school’s public profile has data on the student body, teacher population, assessment results, and accountability metrics.
