Notes: DESE suppresses data in categories where there are five or fewer students. Because of this, the precise percentage of students who scored proficient or higher is unavailable for English and math in 2023-24 at The Leadership School, and for math in 2018-19 at The Biome. The changes since 2018-19 and/or 2022-23 are unavailable for several newer charter schools, including Atlas Public Schools, Kairos Academies, The Leadership School and The Soulard School.
