Summary:
The St David Unified District in Arizona has only one elementary school, St David Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 8th grade. The school faces some significant challenges, with academic performance consistently below state averages and a declining statewide ranking over the past three years.
St David Elementary School has an enrollment of 303 students, with a racial makeup of 82.51% White and 12.87% Hispanic. The school also has a relatively high free/reduced lunch rate of 49.83%, indicating a large population of economically disadvantaged students. Academically, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are significantly lower than the state averages, ranging from 21% to 47% in ELA and 12% to 38% in Math, compared to state averages of 37% to 45% in ELA and 27% to 43% in Math.
The school's performance is also consistently lower than the St David Unified District averages across all subject areas and grade levels. Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has declined over the past three years, from 543 out of 1,226 Arizona elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 682 out of 1,245 in 2022-2023, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. These findings suggest the need for targeted interventions and support to address the academic challenges faced by St David Elementary School and the district as a whole.
