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.

Open Quote School administrators really don't care about your students. Good luck talking to the principal. Won't return emails or calls.
Teacher turnover is in all classes. My son had substitute teacher in 1 or 2 classes each year. Close Quote

Open Quote 2016-201District administration was found by the United States Department of Civil Rights to be in violation for retaliation against a students disabilities. The Arizona Department of Education found them to be in non compliance and they had many violations. Teachers were found to not be certified through the Az department of Education.
The students Math and English proficiency scores are extremely low and under average. School report card is under average. Check out their negative history through many reviews before enrollin your children. Close Quote

Open Quote On this page the rating is high. Although, my 8th grader came home saying they denied him a lunch even though I filled out the form and way below income for free and or reduced lunch. I went to the office and they said they don't offer free or reduce lunch program at their school and on this it says that 41% are receiving free or reduced lunch. That is a lie, I will not as a parent stand by and for one look at these lies and let them be the only district that doesn't offer our children food. I am way below income and to pay the rent is tough enough. She said,"$3 a day will be good." It is not right that all the schools offer and help the poor out but this one just says they do on paper but doesn't. It is our kids who are going hungry. Shame on them, I am not going to let this rest, I promise not til something is done.Especially where they are having the parents fill out the proof of income form for it. and they are posting on sites like schooldigger.com and others that they are helping these needy kids and families in this area and they are not. Why they collect the form is beyond me. Close Quote

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.
