Summary:
The Wilson Elementary District in Arizona contains a single elementary school, Wilson Primary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. The school has a diverse student population, with a majority of Hispanic and African American students. However, the academic performance at Wilson Primary School is significantly below the state average, with only 24% of 3rd-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 27% proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to state averages of 41% and 43%, respectively.
Despite the low academic performance, Wilson Primary School has a high spending per student of $26,100, which is significantly higher than the state average. This raises questions about the efficient allocation of resources and the effectiveness of the school's spending on student outcomes. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students (86.87%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
The Wilson Elementary District as a whole is ranked 279 out of 288 districts in Arizona and is rated 0 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, suggesting that the district is facing significant challenges in providing quality education to its students. The high student-teacher ratio of 16.5 at Wilson Primary School, slightly higher than the recommended 15:1 ratio, may also be a contributing factor to the school's underperformance.
