Summary

Weitzel’s Puente de Hozho Bilingual Magnet School serves 426 students in PK–5 in Flagstaff, Arizona, with 2025–26 proficiency of 37% in English language arts (ELA) and 31% in math. Its latest fifth-grade science result was 23% in 2024–25, below the state’s 34% and the district’s 29%. The clearest concern is fifth-grade science: the result fell 10 points from the prior year and was 11 points below the state.

Overall, Weitzel compares favorably with nearby schools and its district, but trails the state in both ELA and math. It scored 3 points above the Flagstaff Unified District in ELA and 5 points above it in math, while coming in 4 and 2 points below the state, respectively. Across 10 nearby schools with results, the averages were 38% in ELA and 30% in math; Weitzel was 1 point below the ELA average and 1 point above the math average. Grade results are uneven: third-grade ELA was 40%, above the state’s 39%, while fourth-grade ELA was 34%, 13 points below the state. Fourth-grade math was also behind the state, at 30% versus 40%.

Science has fluctuated rather than steadily improved: fifth-grade results were 22% in 2022–23, 33% in 2023–24 and 23% in 2024–25. ELA and math results are available for only one year, so their trends cannot be assessed. SchoolDigger ranked Weitzel at the 37th percentile and awarded it 2 stars in 2025–26; the percentile rose from 16 the year before, and was fourth-highest among five nearby schools with reported rankings. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of how well the school serves Female Students was at the 20th percentile, compared with 37 overall; for White Students, it was at the 60th percentile. The student-teacher ratio was 14.6, versus a nearby-school average of 13.6. The school’s reported free/reduced-lunch rate was 42% in 2022–23, but nearby rates were not available for comparison.

Teachers are great and do a great job challenging my children! Close Quote

Puente de Hozho is a unique school that offers my children a different experience than the traditional schools. They learn half the day in English and half the day in Spanish. They are benefitting from the many advantages of learning another language such as being able to think in different ways, persevering when learning is challenging, understanding and caring about people from other cultures, etc. They have the added benefit of experiencing two teachers every year and learning from their expertise. I have found Puente de Hozho to be a caring, stimulating, academically challenging, safe, culturally enriching school. Other posts have mentioned test scores which if you compare apples to apples, Puente actually does well. They consistently rank above the other title one schools, just behind the higher socio-economic schools and the students learn half the day in another language. Puente has the highest number (by far) of students learning English which does affect test scores. My children have always had "meets" or "exceeds" test scores as students of Puente. This is a great school. I am so glad my children have had the opportunity to be enriched and educated at Puente de Hozho. Close Quote

My daughter loves going to school here. We have found the teachers to be very accessible, friendly, and nurturing to the students. I'm very impressed with what they are able to accomplish by teaching in 2 languages. Close Quote
