Summary

Manuel DeMiguel Elementary School serves prekindergarten through grade 5 and enrolls 561 students in Flagstaff, Arizona. Its 2025–26 results show strong proficiency in both English language arts (ELA) and math: 55% in ELA and 53% in math. The most important finding is that proficiency in both subjects is well above state and district results, with the clearest advantage in math: 53% proficient compared with 33% statewide and 26% in the Flagstaff Unified District.

Math is the school’s strongest subject against state and district benchmarks, while ELA is also substantially ahead: its 55% ELA proficiency is 14 percentage points above the state’s 41% and 21 points above the district’s 34%. Among the six nearby same-district elementary schools, Manuel DeMiguel ranks second in both subjects, just behind Charles W Sechrist Elementary School, which scored 55% in math and 56% in ELA. Grade-level results add detail: fourth-grade ELA was a particular strength at 62%, the highest among nearby same-district schools with reported results, while third-grade ELA was lower at 49%. Math results rose across grades, from 45% in grade 3 to 60% in grade 5.

Science remains above state and district results, although the school’s lead has narrowed: fifth-grade proficiency fell from 61% in 2022–23 to 51% in 2024–25, still 17 percentage points above the state. SchoolDigger ranked the school in the 71st statewide percentile with 4 stars in 2025–26; its ranking was 77th percentile in 2024–25 and peaked at 80th in 2022–23. The school has the largest enrollment among the nearby schools in the supplied group, and its 2024–25 student–teacher ratio of 15.5 was the third-highest among those with reported figures. SchoolDigger’s ranking for how well the school serves special education students was notably high: 92nd percentile in 2022–23, compared with the school’s overall 80th percentile that year. For female students, the school ranked at the 48th percentile in 2025–26, below its overall 71st percentile. The school reported a 19% free/reduced-lunch rate in 2022–23, but comparable nearby-school rates were not supplied.

This school is wonderful! The teachers are really great they are caring and kind and staff is so friendly. They are big on respect and personal responsibility. My daughter has learned far more than I would have imagined this year. We are so impressed with the curriculum. The facility is beautiful as well! Close Quote
