Summary

Pueblo High School is a Tucson, Arizona, public high school in the Tucson Unified District, serving grades 8–12 and enrolling 1,821 students. Its picture is mixed: the 2024–2025 graduation rate was 88%, above the district’s 83% and the state’s 80%, while the latest test results show low proficiency. The most important academic concern is that both English Language Arts (ELA) and math scores are well below district and state results.

Compared with district and state results, science is the closest of the three subjects, though still behind: in grade 11, 6% were proficient, versus 14% districtwide and 19% statewide. In all grades, Pueblo had 18% proficiency in ELA and 11% in math, compared with 29% and 21% for the district, and 41% and 33% statewide. Against the nearby Innovation Technical High School, math is the closer result: Pueblo was 12 points behind in math and 26 points behind in ELA. Most nearby schools’ scores are not available for comparison.

Science has bounced back from a low: grade 11 proficiency moved from 8% in 2022–2023 to 3% and then 6%, and its gap to the state narrowed by 1 point over that period. SchoolDigger’s overall ranking rose from the 2nd percentile in 2023–2024 to the 12th percentile in 2025–2026, earning 1 star, but remains below its 23rd-percentile result in 2022–2023. The school’s 18.4 students per teacher is above the nearby-school average of about 13, and its 2022–2023 free/reduced-lunch rate was 65%. Historical SchoolDigger rankings for student groups also shifted sharply: the Native American student ranking fell from the 79th to the 13th percentile between 2020–2021 and 2022–2023, while the overall ranking was at the 23rd percentile in both years. The Special Education student ranking fell from the 65th to the 26th percentile over the same period.
