Summary

Salida Del Sol Elementary serves 588 students in prekindergarten through grade 6 in Yuma’s Crane Elementary District. In 2025–26, 19% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA) and 17% in math, compared with 41% and 33% statewide and 37% and 29% districtwide. The clearest concern for families comparing local options is that Salida’s results are far below state and district levels in both subjects.

Among nine nearby schools with 2025–26 results, Salida had the second-lowest ELA rate and third-lowest math rate; nearby averages were 37% in ELA and 30% in math. Math is relatively stronger against the state and district because Salida’s gaps are smaller, even though its math proficiency is slightly lower than its ELA rate. Within the school, grade 4 was comparatively stronger, at 24% in both subjects, but still below district and state ELA results of 43% and 47%. Grades 5 and 6 were weaker: fifth graders’ 22% in ELA and 18% in math were below every nearby same-grade result reported, while sixth-grade rates—20% in ELA and 16% in math—were lowest among same-district schools with reported results. Comparisons use available results; Salida’s grade 3 scores are suppressed.

SchoolDigger rates Salida at 0 stars and the 5th percentile statewide for 2025–26, ranking it 855th of 900; the district has 2 stars and is in the 34th percentile. Salida’s SchoolDigger percentile rose from 22 in 2020–21 to 26 in 2022–23, then fell to 6 in 2023–24 and 5 in 2025–26—a 21-point drop from 2022–23. Its 2024–25 student-teacher ratio, 18.9:1, was below the nearby average of 19.4:1, while its reported free/reduced-lunch rate was 81% in 2022–23; these are context, not explanations for test results. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings also showed sharp differences: in 2020–21, the school ranked in the 80th percentile for how well it served African American students, versus the 22nd overall; for Migrant Students, its ranking fell from the 57th percentile in 2020–21 to the 5th in 2022–23. These are statewide rankings of how well the school serves each group.
