Fowler Elementary School District Virtual Academy

Summary:

Fowler Elementary School District Virtual Academy is a public virtual elementary school serving grades K-8 in Phoenix, Arizona, with a small student population of 91 as of the 2022-2023 school year. However, this virtual school faces significant challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom 10-15% of Arizona elementary schools with a 0-1 star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating very low academic performance.

The school has seen a decline in racial diversity, with the percentage of Hispanic students increasing from 82.95% in 2020-2021 to 75.82% in 2022-2023, while the percentage of White and African American students has declined. Additionally, the school has experienced a significant increase in dropout rates, rising from 2.1% in 2020-2021 to 6.2% in 2021-2022. Fowler Elementary School District Virtual Academy consistently performs well below the state and Fowler Elementary District averages on standardized tests across all grade levels and subject areas, with only 8% of 5th-grade students proficient or better in science, compared to the district average of 13% and the state average of 34%.

Interestingly, the nearby physical schools within the Fowler Elementary District, such as Tuscano Elementary, Fowler Elementary, and Sunridge Elementary, generally outperform the virtual academy on academic measures, suggesting that the virtual learning environment may be a contributing factor to the lower academic performance of Fowler Elementary School District Virtual Academy. The school's struggles may also be related to the district's overall low funding and resources, as evidenced by the relatively low per-student spending compared to the state average.

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.
