Skyview High School

Public, Charter Grades 9-12

Summary

Skyview High School is a public charter high school located in Buckeye, Arizona, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 175 as of the 2022-2023 school year. The school's student body is predominantly Hispanic (60.57%), followed by White (23.43%) and African American (10.86%) students.

Despite being a public charter school, Skyview High School consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Buckeye Union High School and Odyssey Institute for Advanced and International Studies, which are nearby schools with higher academic rankings, better graduation rates, and stronger test scores. Skyview High School has received a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating very low academic performance, with extremely low four-year graduation rates ranging from 28.5% to 46.6% and high dropout rates ranging from 15.2% to 26.6% in recent years.

Skyview High School's test scores are significantly lower than the state averages across various assessments, including AzSCI/Science, AASA/English Language Arts, AASA/Mathematics, and ACT, with proficiency rates often less than half the state averages. Additionally, the school has a very high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 73.71% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year. Despite these challenges, there is no clear trend of improvement in the school's academic metrics, graduation rates, or test scores over the years, and the school's rankings and ratings have remained consistently low.

What people are saying

Skyview High School provides a thorough curriculum, dedicated teachers, and optimistic staff and students who believe in success for all students. The focus is a small structured environment and rigorous expectations, that result in student graduation. Close Quote

The only thing holding up this school is the meager, dedicated staff they employ. There is a reason that this school has large turnover in its staff. Very few of the staff has been with this institution for the long haul. The staff, parents, and sudents freely gossip about what is wrong with this school - the leadership. The "leadership" of this school is so very backhanded, twofaced, unprofessional, and unhelpful that they drive their own good teachers away. If the "leaders" say anything to you, be sure to get it in writing. Students are not lying when they say they were told something COMPLETELY DIFFERENT by theirs "leaders". Close Quote
