Summary:
Empower College Prep, located in Arizona, has a single high school serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 374 students. Empower College Prep High School is a public charter school with a predominantly Hispanic student population, making up 89.04% of the student body.
While the school has a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 94.0%, its academic performance, as measured by state assessment proficiency rates, is significantly below the state averages. In the 2022-2023 school year, only 12% of students were proficient or better in Science, 16% in English Language Arts, and 9% in Mathematics, compared to the state averages of 22%, 40%, and 32%, respectively. The school's ranking and rating have also declined over the past few years, with it ranking 351 out of 469 Arizona high schools and receiving a 1 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger in the 2022-2023 school year.
Despite the school's academic challenges, it serves a predominantly low-income student population, with 88.5% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. The school's spending per student for the 2021-2022 school year was $13,852, which is higher than the state average. These factors suggest that Empower College Prep may need to implement targeted interventions and resource allocation strategies to address the academic performance and socioeconomic challenges facing its high school.
