Summary

Madrid Neighborhood School is a public PK–8 school in Phoenix’s Alhambra Elementary District, with 667 students. In 2025–26, 14% of students were proficient in English Language Arts (ELA) and 10% in math, below district results of 26% and 23% and state results of 41% and 33%. Most importantly, Madrid had the lowest all-grades ELA and math results among nearby schools with reported scores.

Math is Madrid’s relative strength compared with ELA, but both subjects lag nearby schools, the district and the state. Nearby schools averaged 24% in ELA and 17% in math, leaving Madrid 10 and 7 percentage points below those averages, respectively. Its math results were closer than ELA to the nearby and state benchmarks, though Madrid’s district math gap was 13 points, slightly larger than its 12-point ELA gap. ELA in grades 6 and 7 stands out as a particular weakness: Madrid scored 11% and 17%, the lowest reported results among nearby schools for those grades, and below nearby averages of 26% and 30%.

Madrid’s recent SchoolDigger statewide ranking has remained near the bottom: it fell from the 11th percentile in 2022–23 to the 3rd in 2023–24, then the 1st percentile in both 2024–25 and 2025–26; the latest rating is 0 stars, rank 889 of 900. Science results also declined in the reported comparisons: grade 5 fell from 22% in 2022–23 to 19% in 2023–24, while grade 8 fell from 16% in 2022–23 to 14% in 2024–25. SchoolDigger’s English Language Learner subgroup percentile dropped from 44 in 2020–21 to 1 in 2022–23, a sharp change in its ranking of how well Madrid served that group; for African American students, it was 57 in 2020–21, compared with the school’s overall 5th percentile that year. Madrid’s 2024–25 student–teacher ratio of 18.5 was close to the nearby average of 18.7, and its 2022–23 free/reduced-lunch rate was 75%. Some grade-level scores are suppressed, and comparable nearby lunch rates are not provided.
