Summary:
The Arizona Conservatory for Arts and Academics, a public charter high school serving grades 6-12 and operated by the Edkey Inc. dba Arizona Conservatory for Arts and District, is the sole school in this analysis. Located in Phoenix, Arizona, the school has a total enrollment of 141 students.
The Arizona Conservatory for Arts and Academics stands out for its strong academic performance, particularly in the 11th grade. Its students outperformed the state averages in both English Language Arts (47% proficient vs. 38% statewide) and Mathematics (36% proficient vs. 30% statewide). However, the school's lower grade test scores in 6th, 7th, and 8th are more mixed, suggesting a need to strengthen the curriculum and instruction in the earlier grades.
The school also boasts a relatively diverse student population, with a mix of White, Hispanic, African American, and Asian students. While nearly half (46.81%) of the students come from low-income households, the school's spending per student is relatively low at $1,557. This raises questions about the resources and opportunities available to support the diverse needs of the student body. Overall, the Arizona Conservatory for Arts and Academics appears to be a solid charter school, but there are areas for improvement to ensure all students are set up for success.
