Summary

Quail Run Elementary School serves 539 students in pre-K through grade 6 in Tucson, Arizona. Its latest all-grade results are 43% proficient in both English language arts (ELA) and math, while fifth-grade science proficiency is 34%. The clearest takeaway is that math is a relative strength overall, but performance varies considerably by grade: proficiency is 53% in sixth-grade math and 51% in fourth grade, compared with just 26% in third grade.

Compared with the state and Marana Unified District, Quail Run’s math result is strong: 43%, versus 33% statewide and 38% districtwide. ELA is 43%, slightly above the state’s 41% but below the district’s 44%. Compared with five nearby schools in the same district, Quail Run is below their average in both ELA (48%, versus 43% at Quail Run) and math (44%, versus 43%). Fifth-grade ELA stands out at 49%, above the state’s 38% and district’s 42%; however, fourth- and sixth-grade ELA are 44% and 39%. Science is a weaker local result: 34%, matching the state but below the district’s 43% and the 42% average at four nearby schools with results.

SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking rose from the 43rd percentile in 2021–22 to the 56th in 2025–26, when the school received 3 stars. Even so, it ranked third-lowest among nine nearby schools with current rankings. Its student–teacher ratio is 12.8, among the lowest reported nearby; its 2022–23 free/reduced-lunch rate was 49%, though comparable local rates are unavailable. SchoolDigger’s measure of how effectively Quail Run serves students from low socioeconomic status backgrounds rose from the 45th to the 64th percentile between 2023–24 and 2025–26, finishing 8 points above the school’s overall ranking. Its measure for how effectively the school serves Hispanic students also increased, from the 44th to the 61st percentile, 5 points above the overall ranking.

I love this school. If your child is falling behind, they WILL notice, and offer free tutoring to bring them back to where they need to be. I feel like my child is safe, and cared for when he's at school. They have a great music program, and offer art classes (which is getting harder to find). The school does a great job at keeping the parents involved, and they're great at encouraging the students to do their best. Close Quote
