Summary:

The Mingus Union High School District in Arizona is home to two high schools: Mingus Union High School and Mingus Online Academy. While Mingus Online Academy has performed well in the past, with a 4-star rating and a ranking of 123 out of 420 Arizona high schools in 2017-2018, more recent data is unavailable, making it difficult to assess the school's current standing. In contrast, Mingus Union High School has seen a concerning decline in its performance, dropping from a ranking of 179 out of 270 in 2023-2024 to 238 out of 469 in 2022-2023.

The data reveals that both Mingus Union High School and Mingus Online Academy had a 78.4% four-year graduation rate in the 2023-2024 school year, and a 5.2% dropout rate. However, Mingus Union High School has consistently underperformed on state assessments, with only 18% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in AzSCI/Science, compared to the district and state averages of 18% and 19%, respectively.

The data also raises some concerns about equity and reliability. The lack of free/reduced lunch data for both schools makes it difficult to evaluate the socioeconomic demographics and potential equity issues within the district. Additionally, the reported spending per student of $1 for Mingus Online Academy seems unrealistically low, suggesting potential issues with the financial information provided for the schools.
