Summary

American Leadership Academy Virtual is a K–12 alternative school in Mesa, Arizona, serving 660 students. Its 2025–26 all-grade results show 31% proficiency in English Language Arts (ELA) and 15% in math, both below Arizona and the district. The clearest concern is math: proficiency trails the state by 18 percentage points and the district by 27.

ELA is a relative strength compared with math, but the school’s all-grade results are also below the nearby-school averages: 31% in ELA versus 44%, and 15% in math versus 34%. Grade-level results vary: 7th-grade ELA reached 48%, above the state’s 43%, while 8th-grade ELA was 23%, below the state’s 39% and district’s 37%. That 8th-grade result is also below nearby American Leadership Academy of Applied Technologies (43%) and American Leadership Academy Gilbert North K-12 (39%). In 11th grade, the school scored 29% in ELA and 23% in math; all three nearby schools with reported results scored higher in each subject.

Science shows some improvement: 8th-grade proficiency rose from 23% in 2022–23 to 30% in 2024–25, matching the state, while 11th-grade results stayed around 16% and remained below the state’s 19%. The 2024–25 graduation rate fell to 74%, from 89% the year before, and was below Arizona’s 80%. For context, SchoolDigger’s 100th-of-267 rank, 63rd-percentile standing and 3-star rating describe the American Leadership Academy Inc. district, not this school individually. The school’s student-teacher ratio is 22.6, around the middle of nearby schools with reported figures; free/reduced-lunch rates and an individual SchoolDigger school rating are not provided.
