Summary:
The The Boys & Girls Clubs of the Valley district in Arizona operates a single elementary school, Mesa Arts Academy, which serves grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 218 students. The school has a diverse student population, with a majority of Hispanic students, and faces significant academic and socioeconomic challenges.
Academically, Mesa Arts Academy struggles, with proficiency rates in science, English Language Arts, and math well below the state averages. For example, only 22% of 5th graders and 9% of 8th graders scored proficient or better on the science assessment, compared to the state averages of 34% and 27%, respectively. The school's performance in ELA and math is also significantly lower than the state, with proficiency rates ranging from 15% to 58% in ELA and 7% to 38% in math.
The high percentage of students (75.69%) qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch at Mesa Arts Academy indicates that the school serves a population facing significant socioeconomic challenges, which may contribute to the academic performance issues. With only one school in the data set, it is difficult to make meaningful comparisons or identify trends within the The Boys & Girls Clubs of the Valley district, but the available data suggests that the district could benefit from targeted interventions and additional resources to support the needs of its students.
