Desert Mirage Elementary School

Summary:

Desert Mirage Elementary School is a public school serving 708 students in grades PK-8 in the Pendergast Elementary District in Glendale, Arizona. The school has a predominantly Hispanic student population, with smaller percentages of other racial groups.

Academically, Desert Mirage Elementary performs below the district and state averages on state assessments, with proficiency rates ranging from 24% to 41% in English Language Arts and 20% to 30% in Mathematics. However, the school's performance varies significantly across student subgroups, with Hispanic and Special Education students tending to perform below the school's overall averages. Interestingly, the school's 7th grade English Language Arts proficiency rate of 51% in 2022-2023 was significantly higher than the district and state averages.

The high percentage of economically disadvantaged students at Desert Mirage Elementary and the nearby schools may be a contributing factor to the lower academic performance, as research has shown that socioeconomic status can significantly impact student achievement. Additionally, the school's relatively high percentage of English Language Learners and Special Education students may also be a factor. The data suggests that Desert Mirage Elementary and the surrounding schools have room for improvement in academic achievement, particularly in mathematics and for certain student subgroups.

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.
