Summary

H L Suverkrup Elementary School serves 502 students in prekindergarten through grade 6 in Yuma, Arizona. In 2025–26, 43% of students were proficient in English Language Arts (ELA) and 42% in math. Both results were above state and district rates, making the clearest takeaway that Suverkrup is performing comparatively well overall, especially in math.

Math is Suverkrup’s strongest subject against nearby schools: its 42% proficiency rate was 9 percentage points above the state, 13 above the Crane Elementary District, and above the nearby-school average of 29%. ELA proficiency was 43%—2 points above the state, 6 above the district, and 7 above the local average of 36%. Only Gowan Science Academy and Desert View Academy scored higher in either subject. Fifth grade was a particular strength, with 58% proficient in both ELA and math; fourth grade was weaker, with 38% proficient in ELA and 31% in math. Science is the weaker comparison with local peers: fifth-grade proficiency was 34% in 2024–25, matching the state but just below the nearby average of 36%.

SchoolDigger’s overall ranking rose from the 43rd percentile in 2023–24 to the 54th in 2025–26, earning 3 stars and the third-highest local percentile among schools with a ranking that year. Fifth-grade science has fluctuated—33%, then 23%, then 34%—rather than rising steadily, and the state rate was 34% in each of those years. SchoolDigger’s statewide effectiveness rankings also flag a relative concern for Female Students: the school ranked at the 27th percentile for that group, compared with the 54th percentile overall; the Male Students ranking was 37th percentile. Suverkrup’s 2024–25 student–teacher ratio was 22.8, above the nearby average of 20.2, and its free/reduced-lunch rate was 69% in 2022–23. Because all-grades ELA and math results are available for only one year, their longer-term direction cannot be established.
