Summary:
The 85231 zip code area in Arizona is home to two elementary schools, Eloy Intermediate School and Curiel School, both part of the Eloy Elementary District. While the schools serve a predominantly Hispanic student population, they face significant challenges, including low academic performance, high poverty rates, and potential funding disparities.
Neither Eloy Intermediate School nor Curiel School stand out as high-performing institutions. Eloy Intermediate School ranks 1079 out of 1245 Arizona elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, and both schools have significantly lower proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the state average. The high free and reduced lunch rates, at 88.85% and 93.36% respectively, indicate that the local community is facing economic hardship, which can impact educational outcomes and the resources available to support student learning.
The funding disparity between the two schools, with Eloy Intermediate School spending $10,857 per student and Curiel School spending $13,029 per student, suggests that there may be inequities within the Eloy Elementary District. Additionally, the lack of racial and ethnic diversity in the student populations may limit the exposure of students to diverse perspectives and experiences. Addressing these challenges should be a priority for the district and the local community to ensure that all students in the 85231 zip code area have access to a quality education.
