Charter-school student gains on the 2016 state math and English exams markedly outpaced their public-school counterparts, according to state Department of Education figures released Friday.

Success Academy charter schools are known for high test scores, particularly in math, but they dominated this year’s list, taking seven out of 10 of the top slots in math. That’s even better than last year, when they took five out of 10.

The number of charter schools ranked among the city’s top-scoring schools on state reading and math exams has more than tripled since 2013, a new analysis by the pro-charter school group Families for Excellent Schools shows.

Way up at the top of the heap: the 4.200 third-through-eighth grade students of the Success Academy charter network, which largely serves poor and minority students. Fully 94% passed the math exam, and 82% the English.

At the Success Academy Bronx 1 charter school in the south Bronx — an institution that draws much praise and much criticism for its rigorous instruction and other aspects of its approach to education — a whopping 70 percent of students met the state’s standards on the English test. That’s more than twice the city average of 30 percent.

Acquiring the power to read is so monumental that it rewires the brain in a way that cannot be undone and leaves a person forever changed.

To address the gender gap, some programs, like the Success Academy charter school network, have created separate clubs or tournaments for girls.

That’s why Ferguson, a computer science teacher, has her students at Success Academy take apart computers and put them back together before they even talk about programming and coding.

Open letter to Mayor Bill de Blasio: “We call on you and your administration to work with us to plan and problem solve and ensure that we’re making the best use of all of our public space.”

When our schools work together, we’ve found that our students reap real rewards.
