Summary

Leading Edge Academy Mountain View is a public charter elementary school serving grades K-8 in Queen Creek, Arizona, with 317 students. The school is part of the Leading Edge Academy Queen Creek district, which is ranked 164 out of 289 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Leading Edge Academy Mountain View has consistently ranked in the middle to lower range of Arizona elementary schools, with proficiency rates on state assessments generally below the state average, ranging from 19-56% across different grade levels and subjects. The school's performance is similar to its district counterpart, Leading Edge Academy Queen Creek. However, nearby schools like Circle Cross K8 STEM Academy, Queen Creek Elementary School, and Faith Mather Sossaman Elementary School, which are part of the higher-ranked Queen Creek Unified District, generally outperform Leading Edge Academy Mountain View on academic measures.

While Leading Edge Academy Mountain View has a diverse student population, the school's dropout rates have been relatively high, ranging from 5.2% to 6.1% over the past few years, which is higher than the state average. The school's per-student spending of $9,212 in 2018-2019 is slightly higher than the state average, but the student-teacher ratio is not provided, making it difficult to assess the school's resource allocation. Overall, Leading Edge Academy Mountain View faces several challenges in terms of academic performance, student demographics, and resource allocation compared to nearby schools, and will need to address these areas to improve student outcomes and better serve its diverse student population.
