Imagine Camelback Elementary

Summary:

Imagine Camelback Elementary is a public charter elementary school in Phoenix, Arizona, serving 365 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Imagine Charter Elementary at Camelback Inc. district, which is ranked 528 out of 540 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Imagine Camelback Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom 10% of Arizona elementary schools, with only 7-12% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 8-22% proficient or better in Mathematics across grades 3-5. The school's student population is predominantly Hispanic (72-74%) and African American (16-18%), which is notably different from the more diverse racial compositions of nearby schools like Clarendon School, CASA Academy, and Alhambra Traditional School. Additionally, a high percentage of Imagine Camelback students (81-82%) are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage.

Despite the relatively high per-student spending at Imagine Camelback Elementary, ranging from $10,482 to $11,366 per student, the school's academic performance remains significantly below the state average. This suggests that the funding may not be effectively translated into improved educational outcomes for students. The nearby schools generally outperform Imagine Camelback Elementary on state assessments and have more diverse student populations, raising questions about equity and access issues for the students at Imagine Camelback.

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.
