Summary

Great Hearts Academies - Archway Glendale is a K–5 elementary school serving 563 students in Peoria, Arizona, near several other elementary schools. Its clearest advantage is math: 2025–2026 proficiency was 78%, 45 percentage points above Arizona’s 33%, and its 78% average across grades 3–5 was the highest among 11 nearby schools, whose average was 61%.

ELA is above the state but less exceptional compared with nearby schools. All-grades proficiency was 68%, 27 points above Arizona’s 41% and level with the reported figure for Archway Classical Academy Glendale. Across grades 3–5, the school averaged 68% compared with a nearby-school average of 64%. Fourth grade was a bright spot: its 80% result was second among nearby schools, behind Candeo Peoria at 84%. Fifth-grade ELA is a relative soft spot: the school scored 59%, just below the nearby average, and seven nearby schools scored higher. It was still 21 points above the state in that grade.

Fifth-grade science has improved, rising from 53% in 2022–2023 to 67% in 2024–2025, a 14-point increase; the latest result was 33 points above the state and higher than every nearby school. SchoolDigger rates the school 5 stars, at the 95th percentile and rank 49 of 900—the highest percentile among nearby schools, just ahead of Candeo Peoria at 94th percentile. The school’s percentile was 97 the prior year; its district also earns 5 stars, ranking 16 of 267 at the 94th percentile. Enrollment is the smallest among nearby schools, but the 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio of 18.1 is close to their average of 18.3. SchoolDigger’s statewide effectiveness ratings, which compare how well schools serve student groups, place White students at the 78th percentile versus 95th overall; that group’s rating fell 14 points from the previous year. For Asian students, the rating shifted from the 83rd percentile in 2020–2021 to the 24th in 2021–2022, when the school overall was at the 97th percentile, then rose to 66th in 2022–2023. Free/reduced-lunch rates were not reported, and most nearby student-teacher ratios were unavailable.

What people are saying

by a parent
Saturday, January 3, 2015

We came to Archway Glendale last year from Candeo Charter School. ACG has a strong yet approachable headmaster. The teachers and staff here are very professional and don't hang out with students or parents after school. Students are held accountable for bad behavior and missing homework. This makes for a well behaved and responsible kid. This school does not test prep for AIMS. If you're looking for a school that teaches to that test, this is not the right school. If you are looking for a school that teaches your kid how to think, and become a moral, well rounded person, than this is the right place. Close Quote
