Summary

Great Hearts Academies - Archway Veritas is an alternative school in Phoenix, Arizona, serving grades K–12 and enrolling 716 students. Among 10 nearby schools in this comparison, it is the third largest, though well behind the two large virtual schools. The clearest takeaway for families is that the school’s reported proficiency is well above state rates in all three subjects reported.

Its strongest results are in ELA and fifth-grade science, while third-grade math is a notable weak spot. In 2025–2026, all-grade ELA proficiency was 67%, 26 points above Arizona’s 41%; math was 54%, 21 points above the state’s 33%. The school’s reported rates match those of its district, Archway Classical Academy Veritas. Among nearby schools with reportable all-grade results, Archway Veritas had the highest ELA rate, just above BASIS Phoenix Central Primary at 66%, and the second-highest math rate, behind BASIS at 56%. Fifth-grade science was 62% in 2024–2025, 28 points above the state and higher than the comparable results for BASIS and Arizona Virtual Academy. By grade, third-grade math was 30%, 8 points below the state; fourth- and fifth-grade math were much stronger, at 65% and 67%.

Fifth-grade science has improved steadily, rising from 49% in 2022–2023 to 60% in 2023–2024 and 62% in 2024–2025, a 13-point gain overall; the state rate stayed at 34% in each year. The latest increase was 2 points, following an 11-point rise the year before. The reported student-teacher ratio is relatively high among nearby schools: 17.4 students per teacher, compared with a nearby average of 13.2, and the second-highest reported ratio in the group. No school-level SchoolDigger rank or star rating, or usable free/reduced-lunch rate, is supplied, so those measures cannot add context.
