BASIS Charter Schools Inc. serves kindergarten through fifth grade across a single campus in Maricopa County, BASIS Goodyear Primary near Phoenix. The district enrolls a moderately sized elementary student body. Because it serves only elementary grades, there is no high school graduation rate or secondary-level program data to report.
The student body is diverse. Hispanic students make up the largest share, followed by Black, White, and Asian students, with smaller proportions of students who identify as two or more races, Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, and American Indian or Alaska Native. Data on how many students qualify for free or reduced-price meals, receive special education services, or are classified as English learners was not available, which means a parent seeking a fuller picture of the school's socioeconomic and support profile would need to contact the school directly.
On state assessments for the 2024-25 school year, the district posted proficiency results that place it in the top quartile among Maricopa County's districts. In math, proficiency was solid across the tested grades, with the highest rate in fifth grade. In English language arts, proficiency was also strong overall, climbing from third grade through fifth grade. Science results for fifth graders showed a majority of students reaching proficiency. These are the only assessment results available, so it is not possible to say how performance compares with prior years.
Chronic absenteeism, reported at a rate that places the district above the midpoint among Maricopa County's districts, is an area a parent may want to follow up on with the school to understand the causes and what supports are in place.
Per-pupil current spending falls in the lower range when compared with other districts in the county. This context matters for families who consider funding levels as a factor in school quality, though spending alone does not determine outcomes.
The district brief, which searched for recent changes such as boundary adjustments, leadership turnover, or program additions, returned no information of lasting impact for a parent to weigh.
This is an elementary-only charter network with a single campus. The academic picture from the available testing data is strong relative to others in the county. The district does not provide public data on free lunch eligibility or special populations, and the absenteeism rate warrants a closer look. Families considering BASIS Goodyear Primary will want to verify directly whether the school's support services, class sizes, and admissions process match their child's needs.
