Summary:
The city of Seligman, Arizona is home to two schools - Seligman Elementary School and Seligman High School, both part of the Seligman Unified District. These schools face a range of challenges, including low academic performance, high dropout rates, and socioeconomic disadvantages.
Seligman Elementary School stands out for its relatively high percentage of Native American students at 17.99%, compared to the state average. However, both schools have proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science that trail the state averages across multiple grade levels. Seligman High School's four-year graduation rate of 55.6% is significantly lower than the state average, indicating a need for targeted interventions to improve student outcomes.
The high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in both schools, at 66.91% for Seligman Elementary and 71.67% for Seligman High, highlights the socioeconomic challenges faced by the community. Additionally, the relatively high per-student spending at both schools, particularly Seligman High School at $40,811, raises questions about the efficient allocation of resources and their impact on student achievement.
