Eliseo C. Felix School

Summary:

Eliseo C. Felix School is an elementary school located in Goodyear, Arizona, serving grades 2-5 with a student population of 532. The school is part of the Avondale Elementary District, which is ranked 173 out of 288 districts in Arizona and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Eliseo C. Felix School consistently performs below the Avondale Elementary District and the state of Arizona in academic assessments, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics for 3rd and 4th grades significantly lower than the district and state averages. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Arizona elementary schools, with a ranking between 817 and 1030 out of over 1,000 schools in recent years, and has received a 0 or 1 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating very low performance compared to other schools in the state.

While Eliseo C. Felix School's overall performance is low, the school has shown some strengths in supporting specific student subgroups, such as homeless students and English Language Learner students, whose rankings are relatively higher compared to other subgroups. However, the school's high concentration of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds and underperforming student subgroups suggest a need for targeted interventions and additional resources to support student learning and achievement.

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.
