A few schools stand out in the district. Cloves C Campbell Senior Elementary School has the highest proficiency rates, with 35% of 5th graders proficient in science compared to the district average of 14% and the state average of 34%. Irene Lopez School also performs well in English Language Arts, with 47% of 8th graders proficient compared to the district average of 24% and the state average of 37%. In contrast, the district's virtual school, iAmRSDOnline Academy, has the lowest overall performance despite having the second-best student-teacher ratio.
Across the district, there are significant disparities in performance, with proficiency rates ranging from 2% to 44% in 8th grade math, compared to the state average of 27%. Schools with higher per-student spending, such as Cloves C. Campbell, Ignacio Conchos, and Maxine O. Bush, tend to have better student outcomes, suggesting a potential link between funding and academic performance. Additionally, the two schools serving only the early grades, John F. Kennedy Elementary and Martin Luther King Early Childhood Center, have some of the higher proficiency rates in 3rd grade, highlighting the importance of focused attention in the early years.
