Arcohe Elementary faces several challenges, including lower overall academic performance compared to the state average. In 2023-2024, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics were 37.76% and 43.66% respectively, compared to the state averages of 47.04% and 35.54%. The school's performance is particularly low in certain areas, such as 4th grade English Language Arts (27.12% proficient) and 5th grade Science (24.44% proficient). However, the school performs better in certain subgroups, such as Hispanic students and English Language Learners, where it ranks higher than the state average. Additionally, Arcohe Elementary has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 8.6% in 2018-2019 to 30.7% in 2021-2022, which is notably higher than the state average.

When compared to nearby schools, Arcohe Elementary's performance is generally lower. For example, C.W. Dillard Elementary, located about 7.5 miles away, has significantly higher proficiency rates in both English Language Arts (59.91%) and Mathematics (52.63%) compared to Arcohe Elementary. Similarly, Oak View Elementary, located about 5.4 miles away, also outperforms Arcohe Elementary across multiple subject areas and grade levels. However, the school's stronger performance in certain subgroups, such as Hispanic students and English Language Learners, suggests that there may be opportunities to learn from these successes and implement strategies to improve the school's overall outcomes.

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.
