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.
