Summary:
The city of Flagstaff, Arizona is home to two middle schools: Sinagua Middle School and Mount Elden Middle School. While both schools serve diverse student populations, they exhibit notable differences in academic performance, dropout rates, and socioeconomic factors.
Academically, Mount Elden Middle School generally outperforms Sinagua Middle School, with higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics. However, Mount Elden Middle School also has a higher dropout rate, indicating potential areas for improvement in student support and engagement.
The data also reveals socioeconomic differences between the two schools, with Mount Elden Middle School serving a higher proportion of students from lower-income families, as evidenced by the larger percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. These disparities may contribute to the observed academic performance variations and suggest the need for targeted interventions to ensure equitable educational opportunities across the Flagstaff Unified District.
