Summary:
The Bagdad Unified District in Arizona is home to three schools: Bagdad Elementary School, Bagdad Middle/Senior High School, and Sultan Virtual Academy. These schools serve students from elementary through high school, providing a range of educational opportunities in the Bagdad area.
Among the standout schools, Sultan Virtual Academy stands out with its exceptional test scores, with 40% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in ELA, Math, and Science, significantly outperforming the district and state averages. The school's small size and low student-teacher ratio of 9:1 suggest a more personalized learning environment that may be contributing to its academic success. In contrast, Bagdad Elementary School has a larger enrollment of 277 students and shows mixed performance, with strong 3rd-grade math proficiency but lower 4th-grade ELA proficiency compared to state averages.
The data also reveals differences in student demographics, spending per student, and student-teacher ratios across the schools. Bagdad Middle/Senior High School has the highest free/reduced lunch rate at 43.78%, indicating a significant portion of the student population comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. The district as a whole has relatively low test scores compared to the state, suggesting room for improvement in academic performance across the schools.
