Summary

Eisenhower Center for Innovation is a 489-student PK–6 elementary school in Mesa, Arizona, and is part of the Mesa Unified District. In 2025–26, 28% of students were proficient in English Language Arts (ELA) and 21% in math. The main concern is that achievement is below both district and state levels in both subjects: ELA is 11 points below the district and 13 below the state, while math is 10 and 12 points below, respectively.

Compared with six nearby Mesa Unified PK–6 schools, Eisenhower is below the peer average in both subjects: 28% in ELA versus a rounded peer average of 37%, and 21% in math versus 31%. It is not the lowest-scoring peer overall, but some grade-level results stand out. Fourth grade is a relative strength: ELA proficiency was 43%, close to the district’s 44% and peer average of 44%, while math was 34%, nearly matching the peer average of 35%. Third-grade ELA was weaker at 20%, compared with a 38% peer average; fifth-grade ELA was also 20%, against a 41% peer average. Third-grade math was 21%, versus a 36% peer average.

SchoolDigger ranks Eisenhower at the 23rd statewide percentile and gives it 1 star, compared with the district’s 41st percentile and 2 stars. Its percentile has fluctuated—31 in 2022–23, 12 in 2023–24, 24 in 2024–25, and 23 in 2025–26—rather than showing steady improvement. The student-teacher ratio was 16.8 in 2024–25, below the nearby-school average of 17.3, while enrollment was typical of the peer group. The school’s free/reduced-lunch rate was 78% in 2022–23. In SchoolDigger’s statewide rankings of how well it serves student groups, foster-care students rose from the 46th to the 84th percentile between 2020–21 and 2022–23, while special education students fell from the 71st to the 24th percentile. Test-score data do not show whether achievement is improving over time, and fifth- and sixth-grade math results are suppressed.

This school was repurposed in 2013-2014. It was a much needed transformation. The leadership and teachers are caring and dedicated and my child is growing and has learned so much! Close Quote
