Summary

BASIS Goodyear Primary is a public charter elementary school serving 683 students in grades K-5 in Goodyear, Arizona, part of the highly-ranked BASIS Charter Schools Inc. district.

The school consistently outperforms the state and its own district on standardized test scores, with 76% of 5th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts compared to 38% statewide, and 78% proficient or better in math versus 37% across Arizona. BASIS Goodyear Primary also spends significantly more per student than the nearby Avondale Elementary District schools, which likely contributes to its strong academic outcomes. The school maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio, another factor in its success.

While BASIS Goodyear Primary generally performs well across different student subgroups, its rankings for Asian and multi-racial students have been more inconsistent, suggesting the school may need to examine its practices to ensure equitable outcomes. Interestingly, the school is located within 1-2 miles of several other high-performing charter and public schools, such as The Odyssey Preparatory Academy Goodyear and Legacy Traditional School - Goodyear, which likely drives innovation and excellence in the area.
