Ganado Intermediate School

Summary:

Ganado Intermediate School is an elementary school located in Ganado, Arizona, serving grades 3-5 with a total enrollment of 207 students. The school is part of the Ganado Unified School District, which is ranked 506 out of 540 school districts in Arizona and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. The student population at Ganado Intermediate School is predominantly Native American, making up 93.24% of the student body in the 2022-2023 school year.

Ganado Intermediate School's academic performance is significantly below the state average across all tested subjects and grade levels. In the 2022-2023 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts ranged from 8% to 30%, compared to the state average of 37% to 45%. In Mathematics, the proficiency rates ranged from 3% to 17%, compared to the state average of 36% to 43%. The school's performance in Science was also low, with only 6% of 5th-grade students proficient or better, compared to the state average of 34%. Ganado Intermediate School has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Arizona elementary schools, with a ranking of 1164 out of 1245 schools in the 2022-2023 school year. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, including female and male students, as well as Native American students who make up the majority of the student population.

Interestingly, Ganado Intermediate School's performance is similar to that of its neighboring school, Ganado Primary School, which is also part of the Ganado Unified School District. Both schools have low academic performance, high percentages of low-income students, and low statewide rankings. Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio, these factors have not translated into improved academic outcomes, suggesting that Ganado Intermediate School may face challenges in effectively utilizing its resources to support student learning.

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.
