Sun Valley Elementary School

Summary:

Sun Valley Elementary School is a public elementary school located in San Luis, Arizona, serving 94 students in grades K-6. The school is part of the Somerton Elementary District, which is ranked 338 out of 540 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating.

While Sun Valley Elementary School has a unique student population that is 100% Hispanic, it generally underperforms compared to the district and state averages in academic proficiency, particularly in English Language Arts and Science. However, the school performs better in certain student subgroups, such as female students, Hispanic students, and low socioeconomic status students, suggesting that it may be effectively supporting the needs of these specific populations. Additionally, Sun Valley has a very low percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients and a low student-teacher ratio, indicating that the school may have access to more resources and smaller class sizes compared to the surrounding Gadsden Elementary District and Somerton Elementary District schools.

Overall, Sun Valley Elementary School stands out from its neighboring schools in several key metrics, including its unique student demographic, variable academic performance across subgroups, and resource allocation. These findings provide valuable insights that could inform future school improvement efforts and resource allocation decisions to better support the academic needs of all students at Sun Valley Elementary School.

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.
