Summary:
The Ray Unified District in Arizona has only one high school, Ray Junior/Senior High School, which serves grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 189 students. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Arizona high schools, with a 1-star or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its predominantly Hispanic student population.
Ray Junior/Senior High School's academic performance is a concern, with proficiency rates in core subjects like Science, English Language Arts, and Mathematics falling well below state and district averages. The school's four-year graduation rate of 77.1% and a dropout rate of 2.8% further highlight the need for improvement. Socioeconomic factors, such as nearly half of the students being eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, may contribute to the school's struggles and the equity concerns raised by its consistently low performance across different student groups.
Overall, the data suggests that Ray Unified District and its lone high school, Ray Junior/Senior High School, face significant challenges in delivering a high-quality education to their students. Targeted interventions and additional support may be necessary to improve student outcomes and ensure equitable access to education in this district.
