Robles Elementary School

Public Grades PK, KG-5
Summary

Robles Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in the Tucson Unified District in Tucson, Arizona, with a student population of 389 as of the 2022-2023 school year. The school faces significant challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom quartile of Arizona elementary schools and underperforming academically compared to nearby schools like John E. White Elementary, Raul Grijalva Elementary, and Picture Rocks Elementary.

Robles Elementary has a very high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 78.92% to 81.69%, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. The school also has a relatively high student-teacher ratio, ranging from 24.4 to 32.4 students per teacher, which is higher than the state and district averages. Additionally, Robles Elementary spends between $4,329 to $8,160 per student, which is on the lower end compared to the state and district averages, potentially impacting the school's ability to provide necessary resources and support for its students.

The racial makeup of Robles Elementary is significantly different from some of the nearby schools, with a much higher percentage of Hispanic students (57.58%) compared to schools like Picture Rocks Elementary, which has a higher percentage of White students (61.26%). This suggests potential racial and socioeconomic segregation within the local school system. Additionally, Robles Elementary's performance on state assessments is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as English Language Learners, Special Education students, and Native American students, indicating the need for targeted interventions and additional support to address these disparities.
