Global Academy of Phoenix

Summary:

Global Academy of Phoenix is an elementary school serving 287 students in grades K-8 in the Alhambra Elementary District in Phoenix, Arizona. The school consistently outperforms the district and state in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency, with particularly strong performance for Hispanic and White student subgroups.

Global Academy of Phoenix's academic performance is a standout, with 52% of 8th-grade students proficient or better in AASA Mathematics, compared to 29% for the Alhambra Elementary District and 28% for the state. The school also ranks in the top 50% of Arizona elementary schools for its Hispanic and White student subgroups. However, the school has seen a concerning increase in its dropout rate, rising from 0.0% in 2019-2020 to 16.4% in 2021-2022, which warrants further investigation and intervention.

While Global Academy of Phoenix outperforms other schools in the Alhambra Elementary District, nearby schools like Ocotillo School and Academy of Math and Science Glendale also demonstrate strong academic performance, suggesting that factors beyond just the district may contribute to a school's success. Additionally, the school's relatively high student-teacher ratio of 19.1 may impact the level of individual attention and support that students receive.

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.
