a 101.3:1 student-counselor ratio, that meets the ASCA-recommended benchmark, and 38.5% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 93.4% African American, 1.6% Hispanic or Latino, 1.3% White across the district's schools.
Its largest campus is Urban Pathways K-5 College Cs, enrolling 304 students (100% of the district's total enrollment).
Urban Pathways K-5 College Cs accounts for 97.4% of all Urban Pathways K-5 College Cs student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Urban Pathways K-5 College Cs a distant remainder — means Urban Pathways K-5 College Cs-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: elementary. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Because it contains a majority of the affected population, enrollment-weighted aggregates will sit closer to this entity's reported fields than to those of smaller peers; an unweighted entity count answers a different question.
Urban Pathways K-5 College Cs reports 99.4% free-lunch eligibility
The reported share is above 87.5%, so economic need is widespread across the measured student population. Title I operates under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015), but its statutory allocation uses additional LEA-level counts and rules not represented by this average. This percentage is an economic-need context measure; it does not establish a Title I award, show dollars received, or describe how funds are distributed among campuses.
Urban Pathways K-5 College Cs student-counselor ratio is 101:1 — well below typical (typically associated with unusually small scale or exceptionally high per-unit investment)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Values this far below typical often correlate with unusually small scale or population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se — worth checking whether the underlying denominator is itself an outlier.
Urban Pathways K-5 College Cs chronic absenteeism rate is 38.5% — high (typically associated with higher-than-average disruption; recent CRDC data showed elevated rates persisting after pandemic-era schooling changes)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
