Pima County Schools Superintendent's Diploma Program

Summary:

The Pima County Schools Superintendent's Diploma Program is a public high school in Tucson, Arizona, serving grades 9-12 with an enrollment of 849 students. The school is part of the Pima County Accommodation School District, which is ranked 515 out of 540 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school's performance is significantly below that of nearby schools, such as Tucson Magnet High School and City High School. The Pima County Schools Superintendent's Diploma Program has extremely low four-year graduation rates, reaching only 5.2% in the 2022-2023 school year and 7.6% in the 2021-2022 school year. Additionally, the school has very high dropout rates, at 31.7% in the 2022-2023 school year and 14.9% in the 2021-2022 school year. Academically, the school's performance is also extremely low, with only 8% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 4% proficient or better in Mathematics in the 2022-2023 school year, significantly lower than the state averages.

The school's diverse student population, with 28.74% White, 9.54% African American, 55.24% Hispanic, 0.82% Asian, and 5.42% Native American students, is not reflected in its performance, as the school ranks very low for all student subgroups. The school's location in a low-performing school district, the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, and the diverse student population may contribute to the school's challenges in improving student outcomes. The Pima County Schools Superintendent's Diploma Program appears to be in urgent need of intervention and support to address the significant gaps in student achievement and success compared to other schools in the area.

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.
