Trailside Point Performing Arts Academy

Summary:

Trailside Point Performing Arts Academy is an elementary school in Laveen, Arizona that serves grades K-8 and is part of the Laveen Elementary District. The school has a diverse student population, but its academic performance has been consistently below average, with low proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the district and state.

Trailside Point's academic struggles are evident across all grade levels, with only 24% of 3rd graders proficient in ELA and just 10% of 8th graders proficient in Math, far below the district and state averages. The school's dropout rate has also been a concern, rising from 0.3% in 2018-2019 to 6.7% in 2021-2022, significantly higher than nearby schools in the Laveen Elementary District.

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.
