Brush High School also faces challenges related to student engagement and socioeconomic factors. The school had a high chronic absenteeism rate of 27.7% for the 2023-2024 school year, and 58.09% of its students were eligible for free and reduced-price lunch, suggesting a relatively high proportion of students from low-income families. These factors may contribute to the school's consistently low academic performance and present opportunities for the district and school to implement targeted interventions and support systems to improve student outcomes.
