Summary

In Phoenix, Kyrene Monte Vista School is a 484-student elementary school serving prekindergarten through fifth grade in the Kyrene Elementary District. The school’s strongest overall signal is that it outperformed both its district and Arizona in 2025–2026 English language arts (ELA) and math, and in fifth-grade science in 2024–2025.

Monte Vista stands out especially in math and science among nearby schools, though it is not the local leader in every subject. All-grades ELA proficiency was 63%, compared with a 51% average at nearby schools, and math proficiency was 60%, compared with a 46% nearby average; Monte Vista ranked fifth of 11 schools in ELA and fourth in math. Its science result was 61%, 21 points above the nearby average, and ranked third of 11. Compared with the district and state, ELA was 13 and 22 points higher, while math was 19 and 27 points higher; science was 17 and 27 points higher. Fourth grade was a particular strength: 79% were proficient in ELA, second among nearby schools and just below Horizon Honors Elementary School, and 83% were proficient in math, above every reported nearby result. Fifth-grade math is a relative weak spot: its 47% proficiency was below the district’s 50% and the nearby average of 48%, though above the state’s 38%.

Fifth-grade science has edged down from 65% in 2022–2023 to 61% in 2024–2025, but remains well above district and state results. SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile fell from 93 in 2024–2025 to 81 in 2025–2026; the latest ranking was 175 of 900 schools, with four stars. Its student–teacher ratio of 16.2 is close to the nearby average of 15.3. SchoolDigger ranked how well the school serves Female Students at the 60th percentile in 2025–2026, down from the 87th percentile the prior year and below the school’s overall 81st percentile. In 2020–2021, its ranking for English Language Learner Students was at the 17th percentile, compared with the school’s overall 90th percentile.
