Summary

Laguna Elementary School is a Tucson school serving grades K–6, with 410 students in the Flowing Wells Unified District. Its latest results show that students are not keeping pace with many nearby schools: Laguna’s 2025–26 SchoolDigger standing was the lowest among nearby schools with reported rankings, at the 23rd percentile. This is the clearest concern for families considering the school.

Laguna’s overall results are below state and district rates in both subjects, with ELA the weaker result compared with nearby schools. Proficiency was 27% in ELA and 23% in math, versus 41% and 33% statewide and 38% and 31% in the district. Nearby schools averaged 38% in ELA and 34% in math, about 11 percentage points above Laguna in each subject; among the six Flowing Wells schools listed, Laguna’s ELA result tied with Homer Davis Elementary School for the lowest. Grade results are uneven: fourth-grade math is a particular weak spot at 24%, compared with 40% statewide and 28% districtwide; only Centennial Elementary School scored lower among the five district schools with results. Fifth-grade math is closer to benchmarks, just 6 points below the state and 1 point below the district.

SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile for Laguna fell from 35 in 2024–25 to 23 in 2025–26; the latest result carries 1 star, compared with 2 stars and the district’s 37th-percentile standing. The longer trend varies, including a 47th-percentile result in 2014–15. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings also shifted sharply: for English Language Learner Students, the ranking was at the 63rd percentile in 2020–21, versus 19th overall, then at the 11th percentile in 2022–23, versus 23rd overall. For African American Students, it moved from the 73rd percentile in 2021–22 to the 34th in 2022–23, while the school overall was at the 19th and 23rd percentiles, respectively. Laguna’s 14.6 student-teacher ratio is close to the nearby-school average of 14.3; its 2022–23 free/reduced-lunch rate was 92%, with no comparable local rates provided.
