Tucson International Academy Midvale

Public, Charter, Alternative Grades K-12
Summary

Tucson International Academy Midvale is a public charter school in Tucson, Arizona that serves grades K-12 with a diverse student population, including a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students.

Despite a significant increase in spending per student, from $6,698 in 2018-2019 to $19,195 in 2021-2022, Tucson International Academy Midvale has struggled academically, with much lower test scores compared to state and district averages. For example, in 2022-2023, only 13% of 11th graders were proficient or better in science, compared to 15% for the district and 22% for the state. The school's math and English Language Arts proficiency rates also lag behind state averages by a wide margin. When compared to other nearby charter schools within the Tucson International Academy Inc. district, such as Tucson International Academy and TIA West, Tucson International Academy Midvale generally performs worse on test scores and other metrics.

The school's very high percentage of students (over 80%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population, is likely a significant factor contributing to the school's academic challenges. Despite the increased spending, Tucson International Academy Midvale has not shown any meaningful improvement in its academic performance over the past several years, suggesting the need for the school to re-evaluate its instructional strategies and resource allocation to better support its students' academic and social-emotional needs.
