Carol G. Peck Elementary School

Summary:

Carol G. Peck Elementary School is a public K-8 school in Glendale, Arizona, serving a student population of 667 as of the 2022-2023 school year. The school has consistently underperformed compared to the Alhambra Elementary District and the state of Arizona in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subjects, with only 32% of 4th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts and 15% of 7th graders proficient or better in math.

The school has seen a concerning increase in dropout rates, from 0% in 2019-2020 to 9.1% in 2021-2022, significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, Carol G. Peck Elementary has an extremely high percentage of students (93.85% in 2022-2023) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. The school's per-student spending has fluctuated over the years but remains below the state average.

While Carol G. Peck Elementary is part of the Alhambra Elementary District, the nearby Global Academy of Phoenix and Valencia Newcomer School generally outperform Carol G. Peck in academic metrics, suggesting that factors specific to the school may be contributing to its poor performance. Addressing the challenges faced by Carol G. Peck Elementary will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to identify and address the root causes of the school's underperformance.

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.
