Summary

Soleng Tom Elementary School is a public elementary school in Tucson, Arizona, serving 283 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Tucson Unified District, which has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Soleng Tom Elementary School has shown mixed academic performance, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics generally higher than the district and state averages, particularly in 5th grade English Language Arts and 3rd grade Mathematics. However, the school's performance in 5th grade Science has been consistently lower than the district and state. The school's rankings for different student subgroups, such as female, male, Hispanic, and White students, have also varied significantly over the years. Additionally, the school's performance for students with special education needs has been a concern, with a 1-star rating in the 2022-2023 school year.

When compared to nearby schools, Soleng Tom Elementary School generally performs better academically than the district average, but lags behind some charter schools in the area, such as Tucson Country Day School and Academy of Tucson Elementary School. The school's per-student spending has decreased in recent years, and its student-teacher ratio has increased, suggesting potential resource constraints that may be impacting its ability to provide a high-quality education to all students.
