Summary

Rattlesnake Ridge Elementary serves students in prekindergarten through grade 6 in the Tucson-area Marana Unified District and enrolls 455 students. In 2025–26, 49% of students were proficient in English Language Arts (ELA), above the district’s 44% and the state’s 41%; in math, 52% were proficient, above the district’s 38% and the state’s 33%. The clearest strength is math, particularly in fifth grade, where 70% were proficient, compared with 48% districtwide and 38% statewide.

Math is also where the school stands out most among nearby schools: its 52% all-grades result was the highest among nearby Marana elementary schools with reported scores, and second-highest among the wider nearby group. Fifth-grade science is another strong result: 52% were proficient in 2024–25, the highest among nearby schools with reported results, compared with 43% in the district and 34% statewide. ELA is more mixed. The school’s all-grades result is above district and state levels, but close to the average for nearby Marana elementary schools and fourth among six schools in that comparison. Grade 3 and grade 6 ELA were each below the district result, by 1 and 2 percentage points, respectively.

Fifth-grade science has improved, rising from 43% in 2022–23 to 47% in 2023–24 and 52% in 2024–25; the state result stayed at 34%. SchoolDigger ranks the school 299th of 900 Arizona schools, at the 67th percentile with 3 stars—above the district’s 54th percentile, though down from the school’s 72nd percentile the prior year. One student-group result to ask about is the SchoolDigger ranking for male students: it fell from the 73rd percentile in 2024–25 to the 44th in 2025–26, compared with the school’s overall 67th percentile. The 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 15.4, the highest among the nearby Marana schools listed, narrowly above Twin Peaks at 15.3; the reported free/reduced-lunch rate was 28% in 2022–23, with no comparable nearby rates supplied.
