Summary

Dorothy Hall Elementary is a public school in Yuma, Arizona, serving 601 students in prekindergarten through grade 5 within the Yuma Elementary District. Its strongest headline is that in 2025–26 it led the nearby schools with reported results in both all-grade English Language Arts (ELA) and math: 47% were proficient in ELA and 45% in math. Both rates were also above the state and district results, making the school’s strongest overall finding its broad advantage in these two subjects.

Math is the clearest comparative strength: the school’s 45% proficiency rate was 12 points above the state and 25 points above the district, and topped the next-highest nearby result, Palmcroft Elementary School, by 4 points. ELA proficiency was 6 points above the state and 15 above the district; at 47%, it was 4 points ahead of James B. Rolle School. One important exception is fourth-grade math: 36% proficiency was below the state’s 40% and the nearby results at Palmcroft (49%) and Rolle (41%), though above the district’s 26%. Fifth-grade science was another strength in 2024–25, at 41% versus 34% statewide and 29% districtwide.

Results show both progress and areas to watch. Fifth-grade science declined from 51% in 2022–23 to 41% in 2024–25, narrowing the school’s lead over the state from 17 points to 7. SchoolDigger rated the school at the 60th percentile and 3 stars in 2025–26, the highest percentile among nearby schools with rankings that year; its percentile was 75 in 2020–21, then fell to 58 in 2024–25 before a 2-point recovery. SchoolDigger’s Military Connected Students ranking rose from the 39th percentile in 2020–21 to the 84th in 2022–23, suggesting a notable improvement in measured outcomes for that group. Its student-teacher ratio was 20.3, compared with a nearby-school average of 17.8; its free/reduced-lunch rate was 44% in 2022–23, with no comparable nearby rates provided.
