Academic Performance
Charter schools are required to participate in the Pennsylvania System of School Assessment (PSSA) and the Keystone Exams just as traditional public schools are. Charter Schools are held to the same academic standards as regular public schools. As the authorizer, the School District of Pittsburgh monitors the academic performance annually in order to ensure that these standards are met. If a charter school is failing to meet academic standards, a plan of action to address student performance must be shared with the District.
Below is the most recent performance for each charter school. Links to performance for prior years follow the 2023-2024 tables.
