How East Voyager Academy of Charlotte compares with North Carolina and U.S. medians
What stands out at East Voyager Academy of Charlotte
Small campus without a staffing-size advantage
East Voyager Academy of Charlotte enrolls fewer students than most North Carolina schools, yet its student-teacher ratio is still on the heavier side of the state distribution. Small enrollment therefore does not translate into more teacher capacity per student here. That makes staffing capacity, rather than campus scale alone, the useful interpretation. The counselor, attendance, and program indicators below help show whether the pressure is narrow or part of a broader resource constraint.
Attendance is the dominant support signal
East Voyager Academy of Charlotte's 30.0% chronic-absence rate is more consequential than a generic staffing label: at least one quarter of students missed 10% or more of school days in the 2021-22 collection. That level can affect instruction, counseling demand, and continuity even when other reported resources look ordinary. The dataset records the scale of absence but not its causes, so it should prompt a current-year question rather than a conclusion about school management.
East Voyager Academy of Charlotte is a small charter elementary school in Charlotte, North Carolina, enrolling 200 students.
Class loads run heavy: 33.3:1 is larger than about 99% of North Carolina schools and 111% above the 15.8:1 state mean, so each teacher carries more students than is typical.
Enrollment of 200 puts it in the smaller third of North Carolina schools by headcount.
Its Resource Investment Index trails 99% of the 2,698 North Carolina schools with a score on record, one of the lower results on this measure.
Its student body is led by African American (48%) and Hispanic or Latino (39%) (diversity index 61/100).
Chronic absenteeism is elevated: 30.0% of students missed 10% or more of school days (2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection).
Its district draws 17.6% of revenue from federal sources, an above-typical federal share that tends to track a higher-need student population.

East Voyager Academy is a single-school charter district, so East Voyager Academy of Charlotte operates independently rather than alongside district-mates.
