Summary

Crismon High School is an alternative public school located in Queen Creek, Arizona, serving grades 7-11 with a total enrollment of 1,646 students. It is part of the Queen Creek Unified District, which is ranked 96 out of 289 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Crismon High School generally performs better than the Queen Creek Unified District and the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics, particularly in the 11th grade. For example, in 2024-2025, 51% of Crismon 11th graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 55% for the district and 40% for the state. However, the school's test scores have been declining over the past few years, especially in Science and 8th grade Mathematics, which could be an area of concern. Crismon High School also has a lower free/reduced lunch rate of 16.85% in 2022-2023, indicating a relatively higher socioeconomic status of its student population compared to the district and state averages.

While Crismon High School outperforms the nearby Queen Creek Virtual Academy in test scores, it lags behind the high-performing charter schools like BASIS Mesa and Heritage Academy Gateway in both test scores and graduation rates. As an alternative school, Crismon High School may face unique challenges in serving a diverse student population with varying needs and backgrounds, which could impact the school's approach and resources. The school could explore strategies to improve its test scores and better support its student population to address these challenges.
