Summary:

Salome Elementary School is a public school serving grades PK-8 in the small town of Salome, Arizona, with a total enrollment of 124 students. The school is part of the Salome Consolidated Elementary District, which is ranked 371 out of 540 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Salome Elementary School stands out for its significantly higher percentage of Hispanic students (61.29%) compared to the state average, as well as its consistently low rankings, with a ranking of 1127 out of 1245 Arizona elementary schools in the 2022-2023 school year. The school's performance also varies greatly across different student groups, with male and English Language Learner students performing better than female and Special Education students. Academically, Salome Elementary School's test scores are well below the state averages, with proficiency rates around 20% or less in English Language Arts and Mathematics, compared to the state averages of 37-45% and 27-39%, respectively.

While the school's spending per student has increased over the years, from $14,066 in 2018-2019 to $19,953 in 2021-2022, this has not translated into significant improvements in academic performance or other key metrics. The school also faces challenges with high dropout rates, ranging from 0% to 3.5% over the past several years, which are higher than the state average. Compared to the nearby Wenden Elementary School, Salome Elementary School appears to be underperforming, highlighting the need for comprehensive interventions and support to address these issues and improve educational outcomes for its students.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
