Summary

Coolidge Junior High School serves 688 students in grades 6–8 in Coolidge, Arizona. In 2025–26, 18% of students were proficient in English Language Arts (ELA) and 7% in math, far below Arizona’s rates of 41% and 33%. The most important finding for families is that achievement is low compared with the state in both subjects.

Compared with nearby schools serving the same grades, however, Coolidge is closer to the local norm: its 18% ELA proficiency is just above their 17% average, while its 7% math result is 2 points below their 9% average. ELA matches the Coolidge Unified District rate of 18%; math is 1 point below the district’s 8%. Eighth-grade science is another weakness: Coolidge had 13% proficiency in 2024–25, compared with 30% statewide, and it was lower than each nearby school with a reported result. The school’s 8th-grade math score is suppressed, so it cannot be assessed.

Results and rankings have shown little recent improvement: 8th-grade science proficiency was 13% in both 2022–23 and 2024–25, while SchoolDigger placed Coolidge in the 2nd percentile in both 2024–25 and 2025–26, with 0 stars (rank 525 of 536 in 2025–26). The student–teacher ratio fell from 27 in 2022–23 to 23 in 2023–24 and 18.5 in 2024–25, close to the nearby-school average of 18.6. The reported free/reduced-lunch rate was 80% in 2022–23; comparable nearby figures were not provided. Historical SchoolDigger rankings differed notably by student group: English Language Learner students ranked in the 68th percentile in 2020–21, versus the school’s 10th percentile overall that year. Its ranking for Native American students shifted from the 44th percentile in 2020–21 to the 6th in 2022–23; these are historical snapshots, not current measures.
