Arts Academy At Bella Vista

Summary:

Arts Academy At Bella Vista is an elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Clovis, New Mexico, with a student population of 353. The school is part of the Clovis school district, which is ranked 84 out of 119 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being an arts-focused school, Arts Academy At Bella Vista has consistently underperformed compared to the Clovis district and the state of New Mexico in standardized test scores across subjects and grade levels. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 29% in English Language Arts, 21% in Mathematics, and 20% in Science, compared to the Clovis district rates of 38%, 27%, and 35%, respectively, and the state rates of 39%, 25%, and 36%. The school's performance has declined over the years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 96th out of 374 elementary schools in 2016-2017 to 292nd out of 433 in 2023-2024. The school has also struggled to support the academic achievement of various student subgroups, with lower rankings compared to other New Mexico elementary schools.

The nearby Zia Elementary and Mesa Elementary schools have consistently outperformed Arts Academy At Bella Vista, both ranking in the top 40 elementary schools in New Mexico for the 2023-2024 school year with proficiency rates well above the state and district averages. The stark contrast in performance highlights the importance of factors such as school leadership, teacher quality, and resource allocation in driving student success. Additionally, the school's high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds underscores the need for comprehensive strategies to address the challenges associated with poverty and support the school's students and families.

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.
