Omega Alpha Academy School

Summary:

Omega Alpha Academy School is an alternative public charter school located in Douglas, Arizona, serving grades K-12 with a total enrollment of 268 students. The school has a unique student demographic, with a predominantly Hispanic student population (over 99% in recent years).

Despite its high graduation rate of 84.6% in 2017-2018, Omega Alpha Academy School has experienced significant challenges in recent years, with its four-year graduation rate dropping to just 42.9% in 2021-2022, well below the state average. The school has also consistently struggled with high dropout rates, ranging from 11.1% in 2018-2019 to 29.1% in 2017-2018, significantly higher than the state average. Academically, Omega Alpha Academy School's performance on standardized tests is significantly lower than the state average across various subjects and grade levels, with some grades performing as low as 7-8% proficiency in English Language Arts and Mathematics.

The school serves a high-need population, with over 98% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in recent years, indicating significant economic disadvantages among the student body. While Omega Alpha Academy School's unique student demographics and challenges are notable, it would be valuable to compare the school's performance to that of other schools in the Omega Alpha Academy district or similar alternative/charter schools in the state to better understand the school's relative position and identify potential areas for improvement.

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.
