Open Quote I attended in the district from 1994 to 2005 then I had to move. I like that they have many programs for children the parents are having like football, ballet folklorico and other programs for children. This is a district concerned for the educasion of children and parents and all people in this district work together with parents and informe parents of all activities in the schools and things of interest to us. I hope they do not remove any program they have and have more classes for children and parents throughout the school year like Parent Academy. Thanks to the teachers for teaching our children and taking the time to teach and inform parents. Grasias. Close Quote

Open Quote The Spanish Dual Language Program is phenomenal. So is the After School Ballet. My kids love the school, love the band, music and arts, and love the teachers. Clarendon is also the only A+ school in central Phoenix. Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
