Summary

Frank Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Guadalupe, Arizona, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 506 students. The school is part of the Tempe School District, which is ranked 189 out of 289 districts in Arizona and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Despite being part of the Tempe School District, Frank Elementary School consistently underperforms compared to the district and the state of Arizona in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 19% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in Science, compared to 31% for the Tempe School District and 34% for the state. The school has been ranked in the bottom quartile of Arizona elementary schools for the past several years, with a ranking of 723 out of 909 schools in the 2024-2025 school year, and a 0 or 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

When comparing Frank Elementary School to the nearby schools within the Tempe School District, it is clear that Frank is significantly underperforming. For example, Rover Elementary School, which is only 2.58 miles away, ranked in the top 25% of Arizona elementary schools and outperformed Frank Elementary School across all academic measures. This consistent underperformance suggests that the school is struggling to implement effective strategies to improve student outcomes, particularly for its diverse student population and those from disadvantaged backgrounds.
