Lehi Elementary School

Public Grades PK, KG-6

Summary

Lehi Elementary School is a public elementary school in Mesa, Arizona, serving 376 students in grades PK-6. The school is part of the Mesa Unified District, which has a 3-star rating, and has a diverse student population with a majority Hispanic enrollment (69.68%).

Lehi Elementary consistently underperforms compared to district and state averages on standardized tests, with proficiency rates significantly lower than the district and state in both English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grade levels. For example, in 6th grade ELA, Lehi had a 25% proficiency rate compared to the district's 43% and the state's 42%. The school has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranks in the bottom quarter of Arizona elementary schools, struggling to support the academic achievement of its diverse student subgroups, particularly Hispanic, English Language Learner, and low-income students.

When compared to nearby schools in the Mesa Unified District, such as Hale Elementary, which has significantly higher proficiency rates and a 4-star rating, it becomes clear that Lehi Elementary is an outlier in terms of academic performance and student demographics. The school's high percentage of students from low-income families (76.6%) and lack of improvement over time suggest that it may require targeted interventions and additional resources to help its students succeed.
