Summary:
The Kaizen Education Foundation dba Mission Heights Pr district in Arizona operates two high schools: Mission Heights Preparatory High School and Leona Connected High School. While Mission Heights Preparatory High School is a strong performer with a 3-star rating, Leona Connected High School struggles significantly, with a 0-star rating and very low academic proficiency, graduation, and high dropout rates.
Mission Heights Preparatory High School outperforms the district and state averages in 11th-grade English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency. It also has a high 88.5% four-year graduation rate and a low 2.2% dropout rate. In contrast, Leona Connected High School has alarmingly low proficiency rates in 11th-grade Science, English Language Arts, and Mathematics, as well as a concerning 21.6% four-year graduation rate and a high 24.8% dropout rate.
The performance gap between the two schools may be influenced by differences in student demographics and socioeconomic status. Mission Heights Preparatory High School has a more diverse student population, while Leona Connected High School serves a higher percentage of Hispanic and economically disadvantaged students. The Kaizen Education Foundation dba Mission Heights Pr district may need to implement targeted interventions and support programs to address the challenges faced by Leona Connected High School and ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students in the district.
