Summary

Wilson Elementary School is a public school in Phoenix serving grades 4–8, with 441 students, and is part of the Wilson Elementary District. Its latest results show 24% proficiency in English Language Arts (ELA) and 12% in math. The most important concern is low achievement overall, especially in math.

Compared with the state, Wilson is behind in both subjects: ELA proficiency is 24% versus 41% statewide, and math is 12% versus 33%. ELA is a relative strength within the district: Wilson matches its 24% district rate, while its math result is 2 points below the district’s 14%. Wilson also trails nearby-school averages: its ELA result is 11 points below the 35% average, and its math result is 10 points below the 22% average. SchoolDigger places Wilson third-lowest among seven ranked nearby schools, ahead of Geneva Epps Mosley Middle School and Osborn Middle School, but behind the other four.

Wilson’s SchoolDigger standing fell from the 27th percentile in 2024–25 to the 14th in 2025–26, a drop of 13 percentile points; it now has 1 star and ranks 463rd of 536 schools. The district ranks at the 3rd percentile statewide, 259th of 267 districts, with 0 stars. SchoolDigger’s English Language Learner Students ranking fell from the 51st percentile in 2020–21 to the 19th in 2022–23, indicating a weaker relative standing in how well the school serves that group. Its Hispanic Students ranking also dropped, from the 45th percentile in 2024–25 to the 22nd in 2025–26. Wilson’s latest listed student-teacher ratio is 17.6, from 2023–24; 79% of students were reported eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022–23. These figures come from different years, and most nearby schools serve only grades 6–8, so comparisons are not always like-for-like.
