Summary

Barbara B. Robey Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 561 students in grades PK-5 in Litchfield Park, Arizona, which is part of the Litchfield Elementary District. While the district is ranked 115 out of 289 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating, Barbara B. Robey Elementary has consistently lower proficiency rates compared to the district and the state of Arizona across various grade levels and subjects.

The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups. While it ranks highly for Native American and Military Connected students, it struggles with Female, White, and English Language Learner students, ranking in the bottom half or bottom third of the state. Additionally, the school has seen a significant increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 25.64% in 2021-2022 to 54.82% in 2022-2023, indicating a growing population of economically disadvantaged students.

When compared to other nearby schools in the Litchfield Elementary District, such as Corte Sierra Elementary School and Dreaming Summit Elementary, Barbara B. Robey Elementary generally underperforms, with lower test scores and a lower statewide ranking. To address these challenges, the school may need to implement targeted interventions, learn from the practices of higher-performing nearby schools, and ensure it has the necessary resources and support to meet the needs of its diverse student population.

I have three kids attending this school and we love it here! We have had great experience with the teachers who challenge our children to be their best. We also enjoy being greeted by their friendly office staff and the helpful nurse. The campus is safe and each of my kids enjoy going there every day. Close Quote
