Public, Charter Grades K-8

Summary

Academy Del Sol is a public charter elementary school serving grades K-8 in Tucson, Arizona, with a student population of 207. The school is part of the Academy Del Sol Inc. district, which is ranked 358 out of 540 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating.

While Academy Del Sol has a significantly higher Hispanic student population (72.95%) compared to the state average (41%), its test scores are generally lower than the state and district averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2022-2023, only 12-34% of Academy Del Sol students were proficient or better in English Language Arts and Mathematics, compared to the state averages of 37-45%. Additionally, the school has experienced high dropout rates, ranging from 7.3% in 2019-2020 to 23.3% in 2021-2022, which are significantly higher than the state average. Academy Del Sol also has a very high percentage of students (81.16% in 2022-2023) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Centennial Elementary School, which is 1.83 miles away, Academy Del Sol generally performs worse on standardized tests and has lower rankings. Additionally, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with the school ranking highly (top 5%) for African American students but much lower (bottom 20%) for Hispanic, White, and low-socioeconomic status students. The school's statewide ranking has also steadily declined over the years, from a high of 5 stars out of 5 in 2009-2010 to just 1 star out of 5 in the most recent school year, suggesting a concerning trend of declining academic performance.
