Summary

Kyrene de la Colina School is an elementary school in Phoenix, Arizona, serving 446 students in grades PK-5. It is part of the Kyrene Elementary District, which is ranked 117 out of 289 districts in the state.

While Kyrene de la Colina School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the years, dropping from 222 out of 1,106 Arizona elementary schools in 2016-2017 to 606 out of 909 in 2024-2025, its academic performance varies across different student subgroups. White students and English Language Learners have performed well, but other subgroups like Multi-racial students, Special Education students, and Low Socio-Economic Status students have struggled, with lower rankings and ratings.

Compared to other nearby schools within the Kyrene Elementary District, such as Kyrene de los Cerritos School and Kyrene Monte Vista School, Kyrene de la Colina School generally performs worse, with lower statewide rankings and academic achievement that lags behind the district and state averages. The school's growing population of economically disadvantaged students, with a free and reduced lunch rate of 40.89% in 2022-2023, may contribute to these challenges.
