Arcohe Elementary has maintained a relatively consistent statewide ranking over the past three school years, suggesting a stable academic performance. However, the school's test scores in English Language Arts/Literacy, Mathematics, and Science are generally below the state average, with proficiency rates ranging from 27.12% to 64.81% compared to the state averages of 31.57% to 47.37%. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 22.6%, which could be a contributing factor to the lower test scores.
Socioeconomic factors may also play a role, as over one-third of Arcohe Elementary students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. The school's student-teacher ratio of 20.5 to 1 in the 2022-2023 school year is also noteworthy. While the school's performance is below the state average in several key metrics, further investigation and targeted interventions could help Arcohe Elementary improve student outcomes and better serve the local community.
