Summary:
The city of Snowflake, Arizona is home to two middle schools: Snowflake Junior High School and Snowflake Intermediate School, both of which serve students in grades 5-8 and are part of the Snowflake Unified District. Based on the available data, Snowflake Junior High School stands out as the higher-performing of the two, consistently ranking above the state average and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Snowflake Junior High School has demonstrated strong academic achievement, with students outperforming the state average in most subject areas and grade levels, particularly in 8th-grade English Language Arts. The school's ranking of 105 out of 552 Arizona middle schools in the 2024-2025 school year further highlights its strong performance. In contrast, while Snowflake Intermediate School also shows solid academic results, such as exceeding the state averages in 5th-grade science and math, it does not achieve the same level of distinction as its counterpart.
Both schools, however, face some potential areas for improvement. Snowflake Junior High School's slightly higher dropout rate of 5.2% for the 2023-2024 school year is slightly above the state average, and both schools spend less per student than the state average, which may be a factor to consider. Additionally, the lack of data on free/reduced lunch rates makes it difficult to assess the socioeconomic diversity and potential equity concerns within the schools. Overall, the middle schools in Snowflake, Arizona appear to be performing reasonably well, with Snowflake Junior High School standing out as a particularly strong performer in the region.
