Original Research by School Decision on Success Academy Charter School-cobble Hill
Success Academy Charter School-Cobble Hill is a small, early-grades charter serving kindergarten through fifth grade in Kings County, with an enrollment of roughly mid-single-hundreds. The school operates within the Success Academy network, a large charter operator publicly reported to have received full-term charter renewal through the SUNY trustees in 2025, extending authorization through mid-2027. This authorization matters for families considering a charter school, since it provides clarity on the school's continued operation.
The student body is racially diverse. Black students make up the largest share, followed by Hispanic students, then a substantial representation of Asian students and white students. A small number of students represent other racial backgrounds.
The school is expanding its grade span. Historically serving through fourth or fifth grade, it is now accepting applications for kindergarten through sixth grade for the 2026-2027 school year. For families, this means a child could potentially continue at the school for more of the early and middle elementary years without needing to transfer to a new school after fifth grade, reducing transition disruption.
State testing data was not available in this profile, so the school's proficiency results are not shown here. A parent considering this school should ask the school directly about reading and mathematics performance on state assessments and how those results compare to district and charter alternatives in the area.
The school's chronic absenteeism rate falls below the midpoint compared to other districts in Kings County. Per-pupil spending is in the lower range compared to county peers, reflecting the resource model typical of charter schools relative to traditional public districts.
Data on free-or-reduced-price lunch eligibility, special education enrollment, and English learner enrollment were not reported in the available records. Parents may want to ask the school directly about the demographics of students receiving special services and support for multilingual learners, since these details help clarify what services and infrastructure the school offers.
The school's small size and early-grades focus mean it serves families with young children. Those looking for K-6 continuity now have that option. Families with children in grades above six or those seeking longer-term progression within a single school would need to plan for a transition after grade six.
