Genesis Academy

Summary:

Genesis Academy is a small public high school in Prescott, Arizona, serving 74 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Prescott Unified District, which is ranked 185 out of 540 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating.

Unfortunately, Genesis Academy is significantly underperforming compared to other high schools in Arizona. The school ranks 429 out of 469 high schools statewide, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Its graduation rate of 38.6% is well below the state average, and the school has a high dropout rate of 21.1%. Proficiency rates in core subjects like science (5%), English (6%), and math (5%) are all far below district and state averages. When compared to the nearby Prescott High School, which is also part of the Prescott Unified District, Genesis Academy lags behind in nearly every metric.

The high percentage of minority students at Genesis Academy, particularly Hispanic (29.73%) and Native American (2.7%) students, raises questions about equity and access to quality education. With limited funding and resources potentially contributing to the school's challenges, addressing the root causes of Genesis Academy's underperformance will be crucial to ensuring all students receive the education they deserve.

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.
