Summary:
Ethos Academy - A Challenge Foundation Academy is the sole elementary public charter school serving grades K-8 in Glendale, Arizona. With an enrollment of 359 students, the school faces significant academic and socioeconomic challenges, as evidenced by its consistently low performance and ranking compared to other Arizona elementary schools.
Ethos Academy's academic proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are well below the state averages across multiple grade levels. For example, in 4th grade ELA, the school's proficiency rate is 37% compared to the Arizona average of 46%, and in 8th grade Science, the proficiency rate is just 9% versus the state average of 27%. This suggests the school is struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students.
The school's high free/reduced lunch rate of 92.76% indicates that it serves a predominantly low-income student population, which likely contributes to the academic challenges faced by the school. Despite these obstacles, Ethos Academy has maintained a 1-star or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, ranking in the bottom half of Arizona elementary schools for the past three school years. Addressing the school's academic and socioeconomic issues will be crucial for improving educational outcomes for its students.
