Summary

Champion Chandler is a K–8 school in Chandler, Arizona, with 373 students, in the Fit Kids Inc. dba Champion Schools district. In 2025–26, 33% of students were proficient in English Language Arts (ELA) and 21% in math; the latest reported science result was 26% proficiency in fifth grade in 2024–25. Math is the clearest concern: its result trails the state, its district, and nearby schools by more than ELA does.

ELA is a relative strength compared with the district, while math is weaker across benchmarks. Champion’s ELA result is 8 percentage points below the state’s 41%, 2 points above its district’s 31%, and 8 points below the nearby-school average of 41%. Math is 12 points below the state’s 33%, 3 points below the district’s 24%, and 15 points below the nearby average of 36%. Grade-level results vary: third-grade ELA is 40%, above the state’s 39% and the nearby comparison average of 38%, while eighth-grade ELA is 29%, compared with 39% statewide and 72% at nearby Chandler Traditional Academy-Humphrey.

Fifth-grade science improved from 15% in 2022–23 to 26% in 2024–25, narrowing the gap with the state from 19 points to 8; the latest result remains below the nearby average of 33%. SchoolDigger rates Champion 2 stars and places it at the 43rd statewide percentile, ranked 509 of 900 schools; its percentile rose from 30 in 2024–25 but remains below 47 in 2020–21. SchoolDigger’s subgroup measure for African American students fell from the 76th percentile in 2020–21 to the 19th in 2022–23, indicating a sharp decline in the school’s relative standing in serving this group. The 2024–25 student–teacher ratio is 15.2, compared with a nearby average of 14.1; the latest reported free/reduced-lunch rate is 64% for 2022–23. Nearby all-grades averages offer context, not exact comparisons, because schools serve different grade spans.

Open Quote Teacher turnover is high, teacher and administrative staff (onsite and headquartered) is disregarding, adults are in power struggles with kids and lack skills to structure the classroom, grades compared to test scores are appalling, amongst more concerns than one can fully leave listed here. Pulled my student, who was failing, in middle of school year and enrolled her in her local public school and she made honor roll as well as was invited by the district to attend a college prep program in less than a year.
