Phoenix School

Q: Is Phoenix School a good school?

Phoenix School ranks 163 rd of 268 Oregon high schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Phoenix School is a public charter high school located in Roseburg, Oregon, serving grades 8-12 with a total enrollment of 171 students. It is part of the Douglas County School District 4, which is ranked 55 out of 140 districts in Oregon and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being part of a moderately performing school district, Phoenix School has consistently underperformed compared to the district and state averages in standardized test scores. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 37% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 57.1% for the district and 45.2% for the state. Similarly, in science, only 29.6% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better, compared to 42.3% for the district and 32% for the state. This poor academic performance has resulted in Phoenix School being ranked among the lowest-performing high schools in Oregon over the past several years, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger in the 2023-2024 school year.

Further analysis reveals that Phoenix School's performance is particularly concerning for certain student subgroups, such as female students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. Additionally, the school has an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 94.15% in the 2022-2023 school year, significantly higher than the district and state averages. This suggests that the school may be struggling to effectively allocate resources and support its student population, despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.1 students per teacher.

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.
