Arizona Autism Charter School Upper School Campus

Summary:

Arizona Autism Charter School Upper School Campus is a public charter high school in Phoenix, Arizona that serves 241 students in grades 5-12. The school has a diverse student population, with a racial makeup of 32.37% White, 51.45% Hispanic, 4.15% African American, 4.15% Asian, 3.73% Native American, 0.41% Pacific Islander, and 3.73% two or more races.

Despite its specialized focus on serving students with autism, the school has consistently underperformed compared to the state and its own district on standardized tests. In the 2022-2023 school year, only 12% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in Science, compared to 16% for the district and 22% for the state. Similarly, only 18% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 16% for the district and 40% for the state. The school also has a low 4-year graduation rate of 36.4% and fluctuating dropout rates ranging from 0.0% to 2.5%.

When compared to nearby schools like Camelback High School, North High School, and Phoenix Coding Academy, Arizona Autism Charter School Upper School Campus performs significantly worse on academic measures. This suggests that the school's specialized focus may be contributing to its underperformance, and that there may be issues with funding and resource allocation that are impacting its ability to provide a high-quality education for all students, particularly those from underperforming subgroups.

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.
