Original Research by School Decision on Elmwood Village Charter School Days Park
Elmwood Village Charter School Days Park is a small elementary and middle charter district in Erie County that serves students from kindergarten through eighth grade. The school has a balanced demographic profile, with Black and white students each representing roughly one-third of the population, Hispanic students representing a meaningful share, and students of two or more races also present. The enrollment is steady across grade levels.
Data on state testing results and proficiency are not available for this entity, making it difficult to assess academic performance at the classroom level. The school's website, if one exists, was not located in available sources. Similarly, free-or-reduced-price-lunch eligibility data, special education and English learner identification rates, and attendance records were not reported, which limits the picture of student demographics and support needs.
Among Erie County's districts, the school reports a chronic absenteeism rate that falls below the county median, a positive indicator for day-to-day engagement. Per-pupil current spending is in the lower range for the county, which may reflect the school's charter status and operating model but leaves questions about resource depth that a parent would want to explore directly with the school.
Because the school serves only grades K-8, it does not provide a graduation rate, which is typical for an entity at this grade level. The school operates as a charter district, meaning it sits outside traditional public school governance, though specifics on the charter's focus, philosophy, or any recent renewal or operational changes were not found in recent public records.
A parent considering this school would benefit from visiting in person and requesting information on curriculum, testing practices, student outcomes, and how the school supports students with learning differences or language needs. The absence of reported achievement data makes it especially important to ask how the school measures progress and shares results with families.
