Summary:
The 85746 zip code area of Tucson, Arizona is home to 11 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 2 high schools, and 1 alternative school. These schools serve predominantly Hispanic student populations and have high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic challenges in the area.
While a few schools, such as John E White Elementary School and Frances J Warren Elementary School, are performing relatively well on standardized tests, the majority of schools in the area are struggling, with test scores well below state averages. The Tucson International Academy Midvale, an alternative charter high school, also stands out with better test scores and a 0% dropout rate compared to the other high schools in the area.
The data suggests that adequate funding and resources are crucial for supporting student success, as schools with higher per-student spending tend to have better outcomes. However, the two charter high schools in the area, Ombudsman - Charter Valencia and Pima Rose Academy, face significant challenges, with extremely low graduation rates and high dropout rates. Addressing the disparities in academic performance and supporting the unique needs of each school community will require a multifaceted approach.
