Summary:
The area has two Arizona high schools serving grades 9–12: Glenview College Preparatory High School enrolls 536 students, and Kaizen Education Foundation dba El Dorado High School enrolls 184, for 720 students combined. The clearest concern in the available outcomes is El Dorado’s graduation and dropout record: in 2024–25, 46% of students graduated, compared with 76% in the district and 80% statewide, while 12% dropped out, versus 5% in both the district and state.
Glenview has the stronger available test results, especially in English, while El Dorado stands out for weaker reported graduation and dropout outcomes. In 2025–26, Glenview’s all-grades ELA proficiency was 48%, 7 points above the state’s 41%; its math result was 33%, matching the state. For 11th grade, Glenview was 10 points above the state in ELA (48% versus 38%) and 2 points above in math (33% versus 31%). Its 2024–25 11th-grade science result was 13%, 6 points below the state’s 19%. El Dorado’s listed AASA results are suppressed, so the available data cannot support a complete academic ranking of the two schools.
SchoolDigger’s rank history shows a recent dip and recovery for Glenview, and a decline in El Dorado’s earlier results: Glenview moved from the 58th percentile in 2023–24 to the 48th in 2024–25, then to the 59th in 2025–26; El Dorado fell from the 16th percentile in 2020–21 to the 8th in 2022–23. These rankings cover different years. El Dorado also has a lower student–teacher ratio—14.1, compared with Glenview’s 22.3—and higher reported per-student spending: $11,674 versus $9,507 in 2021–22. Those staffing and spending differences are useful context, but they do not explain the outcome gap on their own.
