Summary:
The Winslow Unified District in Arizona has only one high school, Winslow High School, which serves grades 9-12. The school has a diverse student population, with nearly half of the students identifying as Native American and almost a third as Hispanic.
Academically, Winslow High School faces significant challenges, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science falling well below the state averages. Only 20% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in ELA, and 18% were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to the state averages of 38% and 30%, respectively. The school's science proficiency rate for 11th-grade students was also low at 16%, compared to the state average of 22%. Despite these academic struggles, the school's four-year graduation rate of 93.7% is slightly above the state average, though its dropout rate of 8.3% is relatively high.
In terms of resources, Winslow High School spends slightly more per student than the state average, but its student-teacher ratio of 20.1 is higher than the recommended ratio for effective teaching and learning. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Arizona high schools, with a 1-star rating out of 5 in the 2023-2024 school year. These findings suggest that the school may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to improve student learning, support student retention, and address the unique needs of its diverse student population.
