V H Lassen Elementary School

Summary:

V H Lassen Elementary School is a public school serving grades PK-8 in Phoenix, Arizona, with a student population of 281 that is predominantly Hispanic (86.12%). The school is part of the Roosevelt Elementary District, which is ranked 455 out of 540 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

V H Lassen Elementary School consistently ranks in the bottom 20% of Arizona elementary schools, with significantly below-average performance on state assessments. In 2022-2023, only 7-28% of students were proficient in English Language Arts, and only 5-11% were proficient in Mathematics, compared to state averages of 37-45% and 27-43%, respectively. The school struggles to support the academic achievement of its student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 25% of Arizona schools for its performance with female, male, African American, Hispanic, and low-socioeconomic status students. However, the school's English Language Learner and Special Education students perform slightly better, ranking in the middle 50% of schools.

The nearby schools in the Roosevelt Elementary District, such as John R Davis School and Ignacio Conchos School, perform similarly to V H Lassen Elementary School, suggesting that the challenges faced by the school are likely systemic issues within the district. While the overall academic performance is poor, the school's dropout rate has been consistently low, and its English Language Learner students perform better than their peers. Addressing the systemic issues and implementing targeted, evidence-based strategies to support student learning will be crucial for improving outcomes at V H Lassen Elementary School.

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.
