William T Machan Elementary School

Summary:

William T Machan Elementary School is a public school in Phoenix, Arizona, serving 595 students in grades PK-8. The school is part of the Creighton Elementary District, which is ranked 476 out of 540 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, William T Machan Elementary School is performing significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. In 2022-2023, only 3-14% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts and 3-11% were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to the state averages of 37-45% and 27-43%, respectively. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Arizona elementary schools, with a ranking of 1238 out of 1245 schools in the 2022-2023 school year. Additionally, the school has experienced a steady increase in dropout rates, from 2.3% in 2017-2018 to 6.4% in 2021-2022.

Interestingly, the nearby schools within the Creighton Elementary District, such as Excelencia School, Creighton Virtual Academy, and Loma Linda Elementary School, also perform significantly below the state averages in academic proficiency, suggesting that the challenges faced by William T Machan Elementary School may be systemic within the district. Despite the school's relatively high spending per student, ranging from $10,543 to $11,949 per student over the past few years, these increased resources have not translated into improved academic outcomes.

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.
