Summary

Madison Meadows School is a public middle school serving 813 students in grades 5-8 within the Madison Elementary District in Phoenix, Arizona. The school is ranked 150 out of 552 Arizona middle schools for the 2024-2025 school year and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating strong academic performance.

Madison Meadows School consistently outperforms the district and state averages in standardized test scores, with 50% of 5th graders and 49% of 8th graders proficient or better in science, compared to 45% and 42% for the district, and 34% and 30% for the state, respectively. The school has seen a gradual increase in its dropout rates, from 3.3% in 2019-2020 to 5.2% in 2023-2024, though still lower than the state average. When compared to other middle schools in the surrounding area, such as Madison Park School and Madison #1 Elementary School, Madison Meadows stands out as a higher-performing institution.

The school's focus on resource allocation and investment in educational programs, with per-student spending increasing from $5,672 in 2019-2020 to $9,728 in 2021-2022, appears to be contributing to its strong academic outcomes. However, the school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with Hispanic and White students performing better than Asian and African American students. Addressing these equity and inclusion concerns will be crucial for the school's continued success.
