Arizona Online Charter School

Public, Charter, Virtual Grades K-8

Summary

Arizona Online Charter School is a small public charter elementary school serving grades K-8 in Tucson, Arizona, with just 39 students enrolled. The school operates under the Liberty Traditional Charter School District, which is ranked 317 out of 540 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While the school has a significantly higher Hispanic student population (64.1%) compared to nearby schools, which range from 36.29% to 55.61% Hispanic students, it consistently underperforms its peers academically. For example, in 8th grade Science, Arizona Online Charter School had only 10% proficiency, compared to 40% at Wheeler Elementary School and 27% statewide. The school also has a high dropout rate of 11.8%, much higher than the 10.2% and 5.4% rates at Dietz K-8 School and Sonoran Science Academy East, respectively.

Overall, Arizona Online Charter School ranks very low among Arizona elementary schools, coming in at 1006 out of 1245 in the 2022-2023 school year and receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. This poor performance, coupled with the school's high dropout rate and significant racial disparity in its student population, suggests that the school may be struggling to provide the necessary support and resources for its students to succeed academically. Comparing the school's outcomes to the higher-performing nearby schools, such as Wheeler Elementary School and Sonoran Science Academy East, highlights the need for Arizona Online Charter School to closely examine its educational practices and implement strategies to improve student achievement and engagement.
