Summary:

Great Expectations Academy is the sole public charter school serving grades K-8 in Sahuarita, Arizona. This diverse school stands out for its strong science performance, with 5th and 8th graders exceeding the state average in science proficiency. However, the school's academic results are mixed, with some grade levels performing well above the state average in English Language Arts and Math, while others struggle to meet proficiency targets.

Great Expectations Academy has a student population that is 49.53% white, 40.19% Hispanic, and a mix of other racial/ethnic groups. The school's 6.6% dropout rate is higher than one would hope for an elementary/middle school, and this could be an area of concern. The school's per-student spending of $8,657 is in the middle range, neither exceptionally high nor low, and may be an area to explore in relation to the school's academic outcomes.

Overall, Great Expectations Academy shows both strengths and areas for improvement. While the school excels in science education, its uneven academic performance across grade levels suggests the need for further analysis and targeted interventions to ensure all students are receiving a high-quality education.
