Summary

American Leadership Academy San Tan Valley K-6 serves 637 students in kindergarten through grade 6 in San Tan Valley, Arizona. Its 2025–26 proficiency rates were above Arizona’s statewide rates in both English Language Arts (ELA) and math, but performance varies by grade. The clearest grade-level contrast is that sixth grade stands out in both subjects, while fifth-grade ELA is a distinct weak spot.

Overall, the school is ahead of both the state and American Leadership Academy Inc.: ELA was 54%, versus 41% statewide and 51% in the district; math was 49%, versus 33% and 42%. Against the three nearby K–6 or PK–6 schools with comparable results, however, it was about 2 points below the ELA average and 6 points below the math average. Sixth grade was a strength: ELA was 68% and math 60%, with only Frances Brandon-Pickett Elementary higher among nearby schools reporting sixth-grade results. Fifth-grade ELA was 40%, below the district’s 48% and the results reported by nearby schools including Schnepf Elementary and Eduprize School.

Fifth-grade science has stayed above the state rate but recently slipped: the school’s result rose from 42% in 2022–23 to 45% in 2023–24, then fell to 40% in 2024–25, while the state was at 34% each year. SchoolDigger rated the school in the 68th statewide percentile with 3 stars in 2025–26; its percentile has fluctuated, rising 7 points from 2015–16. SchoolDigger’s ranking for how well the school serves White students was notably lower, at the 24th percentile in 2025–26 versus the school’s 68th-percentile overall ranking. The 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 15.1, below the nearby average of 17.6; its reported free/reduced-lunch rate was 34% in 2022–23.
