Summary

Sturgeon Cromer Elementary School serves 350 students in prekindergarten through grade 6 in Flagstaff, within Flagstaff Unified District. In 2025–26, 27% of students were proficient in English Language Arts (ELA) and 23% in math, below district and Arizona results in both subjects. The sharpest concern is grade 4: proficiency was 24% in ELA and 19% in math, below every same-district nearby school reporting results for that grade.

Math is the school’s relative strength among its latest all-grades results, while ELA is weaker: math proficiency was 3 percentage points below the district, 10 below Arizona, and 4 below the nearby-school average of 27%; ELA was 7 points below the district, 14 below Arizona, and 10 below the nearby average of 37%. Among 10 nearby schools with results, Cromer ranked fourth-lowest in ELA and fifth-lowest in math. Grade 5 ELA is a brighter spot: its 36% proficiency was 2 points below the state and 1 point above the district. Grade 5 math, at 27%, remained 11 points below the state and 6 below the district.

Fifth-grade science proficiency rose from 25% in 2022–23 to 32% in 2023–24, then slipped to 29% in 2024–25; that latest result matched the district but was 15 points below the nearby-school average of 44%. SchoolDigger’s overall ranking also declined, from the 65th percentile in 2015–16 to the 16th percentile and 1 star in 2025–26; nearby schools with reported rankings were in the 33rd–75th percentiles and had 2–4 stars. The 2024–25 student–teacher ratio was 12.9, below the 14.1 nearby-school average, while the free/reduced-lunch rate was 40% in 2022–23. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for how well the school serves low socioeconomic status students was at the 12th percentile in 2022–23, compared with the school’s 48th-percentile overall ranking; its White-student ranking fell from the 30th percentile in 2023–24 to the 5th in 2025–26, while the overall ranking was at the 16th percentile.

What people are saying

by a parent
Wednesday, July 5, 2017

This is our first experience with a public elementary school. We came from the Phoenix area where my son went to private preschool. We are SO impressed with this school and the teachers. I was new to Flagstaff and had some parents tell me how awful Cromer school was (I believe them to just be school snobs). My son has done better at this school than the private school he was at in the valley. He is learning so much, he absolutely loves it. He comes home everyday saying that he had a wonderful day and looks forward to going. The teachers and Principal are so nice! It's too bad that we're moving away as soon as he finishes school in May. I would love for him to continue on there. Close Quote
