Summary:
The Humboldt Unified District in Arizona is home to 6 elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 6th grade. While the schools share a district, they exhibit significant performance differences, with Liberty Traditional School emerging as the standout performer in the region.
Liberty Traditional School consistently ranks among the top 20% of elementary schools in Arizona, with test scores that far exceed the district and state averages. In contrast, the other schools in the district, such as Coyote Springs Elementary, Granville Elementary, and Lake Valley Elementary, struggle to meet or exceed state-level performance, with test scores that lag behind their peers.
The data reveals that factors such as per-student spending and student-teacher ratios do not necessarily correlate with academic performance. For instance, Mountain View Elementary, which has the highest per-student spending, also has the lowest test scores in the district. Conversely, Liberty Traditional School, with the lowest per-student spending, achieves the highest academic outcomes. These findings suggest that factors beyond funding and staffing levels may be driving the performance differences observed across the district.
