Summary

Entz Elementary School serves 567 students in prekindergarten through grade 6 in Mesa, Arizona, with several nearby schools offering similar grade spans. Its 2025–26 results stand well above local and state benchmarks: all-grades proficiency was 62% in English language arts and 68% in math, compared with 39% and 31% at Mesa Unified District and 41% and 33% statewide. The most important takeaway is that Entz is a standout among nearby K–6 schools, especially in math.

Math is Entz’s strongest subject compared with nearby schools: its 68% proficiency was 33 points above the average for seven nearby K–6 schools, while its 62% in ELA was 22 points above their average. Only Self Development Charter School scored higher overall, with 76% in both subjects. Within Entz, fourth grade was strongest, at 76% in ELA and 84% in math. Sixth grade was its weakest tested grade, at 48% in each subject, but both scores remained above state rates; its sixth-grade ELA result was also below Highland Arts Elementary and Johnson Elementary.

Entz’s SchoolDigger percentile rose from 71 in 2023–24 to 87 in 2025–26; its current standing is second among nearby schools with rankings, and it has four stars.
