PyCity Schools Analysis

Task:

Given access to math and reading scores from standardized test results of 15 schools from either District or Charter type, aggregate data to showcase obvious trends in school performance.

Methods:

Create the following reports for ease of analysis.

  • District Summary

  • School Summary

  • Top Performing School By Overall Passing %

  • Bottom Performing School By Overall Passing %

  • Math Scores by Grade

  • Reading Scores by Grade

  • Scores by School Spending

  • Scores by School Size

Analysis

Our reports seem to support the following observations:

  • The top performing school based on overall passing rate were Charter Schools.

  • The bottom performing schools based on overall passing rate were District Schools.

  • When grouped by school, the average reading and math scores of 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th graders were very similar--within less than 5 point difference from one another.

  • The amount of money being spent per student does not seem to contribute to better reading and math scores and overall passing rate--the overall passing rate for students in schools who spend the least is 37% higher than the overall passing rate of students in schools who spend the most per student.

  • Similarly, small and medium size schools out perform larger schools in reading, math and overall passing.

  • Math scores are always the lowest across the board, but there seems to be a significant improvement in math scores and reading scores in charter schools, medium sized district schools, and schools who are spending less than $585 per student.
