Arizona Insight Academy

Summary:

Arizona Insight Academy is a public charter high school serving grades 7-12 in Glendale, Arizona, which is part of the Portable Practical Educational Preparation Inc. district. The school has consistently underperformed the state and district averages on standardized tests, particularly in mathematics, where only 9% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in 2023-2024, compared to the state average of 30%.

Arizona Insight Academy's academic struggles are further highlighted by its low graduation rate of 46.9% in 2022-2023, which is significantly lower than nearby schools like Westview High School (79.7%) and Copper Canyon High School (85.9%). The school's dropout rate of 11.9% in 2022-2023 is more than double the rates of these nearby schools. Additionally, the school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with some groups, such as Native American and English Language Learner students, performing better than others.

The school's lower per-student spending of $7,650 in 2018-2019, compared to the state average and nearby schools, suggests that it may be facing resource challenges that could be impacting its ability to provide a high-quality education. Overall, Arizona Insight Academy appears to be a struggling school that is underperforming academically and facing challenges with graduation and dropout rates, which raises concerns about the quality of education it is providing to its diverse student population.

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.
