Summary:
The city of Kingman, Arizona is home to 5 high schools, including Lee Williams High School, Kingman High School, Kingman Academy of Learning - High School, Kingman Online Learning Academy (KOLA) High School, and WAVE - Mohave Community College. These schools serve students in grades 9-12 and are part of the Kingman Unified School District, the Kingman Academy Of Learning, and the Western Arizona Vocational District #50.
Among the Kingman high schools, the Kingman Academy of Learning - High School stands out as the top performer, with consistently higher statewide rankings, better test scores, and overall stronger academic performance compared to the other schools in the area. This public charter high school has ranked between 141-167 out of all Arizona high schools over the past 3 years, with 40-44% of 11th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, and 20-22% proficient or better in Math and Science.
While the Lee Williams High School has the largest enrollment in the district with 1,083 students and the second-highest test scores, the overall performance of the Kingman high schools is a concern. The district-wide 4-year graduation rate of 78.4% and dropout rate of 5.2% are both below the state averages, and there is significant variation in spending per student, ranging from $7,371 to $10,273 across the schools. These factors suggest the need for further investigation into the challenges facing the Kingman Unified School District and its efforts to provide high-quality education to its students.
