Arizona K-8 Online Academy

Public, Virtual Grades

Summary

Arizona K-8 Online Academy is a small public virtual elementary school serving grades K-8 in the Alhambra Elementary District in Phoenix, Arizona. With just 112 students, the school has a predominantly Hispanic student population (73.21%), along with smaller percentages of White, African American, and Native American students.

Despite its small size, Arizona K-8 Online Academy faces significant challenges. The school consistently ranks in the bottom 15% of Arizona elementary schools, with a statewide ranking of 1054 out of 1245 schools in 2022-2023. Its performance on state assessments is significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. Additionally, the school has an alarmingly high dropout rate of 36.6% for the 2021-2022 school year, which is much higher than the state average. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.2, it also spends less per student ($6,030 in 2021-2022) compared to nearby traditional public schools.

The data suggests that the virtual learning model may not be effectively serving the needs of the student population in this area. When compared to nearby traditional public schools in the Alhambra Elementary District, such as James W. Rice Elementary School and Cordova Elementary School, Arizona K-8 Online Academy consistently performs worse on state assessments, has a higher dropout rate, and spends less per student. This raises concerns about equity and access to quality education, as the school's student population is predominantly Hispanic and low-income.
