Summary

Hulet Elementary School serves 341 students in grades 2–5 in Holbrook, Arizona. Its clearest strength is math overall, but fifth-grade results are a serious concern: in 2025–2026, just 17% of fifth-graders were proficient in English Language Arts (ELA) and 23% in math, both below statewide levels. The sharpest warning is the drop from fourth to fifth grade: proficiency fell 28 points in ELA and 34 points in math.

Across all grades, Hulet’s math results are stronger than its other comparisons: 40% were proficient, 7 points above Arizona, 16 above Holbrook Unified District, and 12 above Joseph City Elementary School. ELA proficiency was 35%—6 points below the state, 4 above the district, and 5 below Joseph City. In fourth-grade math, Hulet also outperformed the state, district, and Joseph City by 17, 9, and 5 points, respectively. Fifth-grade science was weaker: Hulet’s 19% in 2024–2025 trailed the state by 15 points and Joseph City by 24, though it was 2 points above the district. Park Elementary School has no test scores in the supplied data, and some Joseph City fifth-grade scores are suppressed.

Hulet’s SchoolDigger statewide percentile rose from 22 in 2023–2024 to 46 in 2025–2026; its latest rating is 2 stars, rank 489 of 900. Joseph City’s latest SchoolDigger rating is higher, at the 59th percentile and 3 stars. Science improved from 15% in 2023–2024 to 19% in 2024–2025, but remains below its 20% result in 2022–2023. SchoolDigger subgroup rankings show sharp changes: its English-learner effectiveness ranking rose from the 4th percentile in 2020–2021 to the 92nd in 2022–2023, while its special-education ranking fell from the 64th to the 11th percentile over those years. Hulet’s student-teacher ratio was 16.3 in 2024–2025, higher than Park’s 10.1 and Joseph City’s 13.3; its free/reduced-lunch rate was 65% in 2022–2023, with no nearby comparison supplied.
