Summary

Anna Lawrence Intermediate School is a public middle school in Tucson, Arizona, serving 264 students in grades 3-8. The school is part of the Tucson Unified District, which is ranked 373 out of 540 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Anna Lawrence Intermediate School faces significant challenges, with consistently low academic performance and high dropout rates compared to nearby schools. The school has a much higher percentage of Native American students (43.56%) than surrounding schools, which range from 1.55% to 8.29% Native American students. Additionally, over 80% of the students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are significantly lower than the Tucson Unified District and the state averages across all grade levels, and it has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-20% of Arizona middle schools for the past decade.

While the nearby schools in the Tucson Unified District also struggle with low academic performance and high percentages of economically disadvantaged students, Paulo Freire Freedom School - Downtown, Utterback Middle School, and Gallego Intermediate Fine Arts Magnet School perform better than Anna Lawrence Intermediate School. This highlights the need for a more comprehensive, district-wide approach to addressing the educational challenges faced by these schools, with a focus on targeted interventions and increased resources to support the unique needs of the student population at Anna Lawrence Intermediate School.
