The school is part of the Phoenix Union High School District, which is ranked 253 out of 289 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Camelback High School's academic performance, as measured by state assessment proficiency rates, is significantly below the district and state averages across all subject areas.

The school's four-year graduation rate for the 2023-2024 school year was 78.4%, which is lower than the state average, and its dropout rate was 5.2%.

The school's student-teacher ratio of 18.2 is relatively high, and its per-student spending of $9,001 for the 2021-2022 school year is lower than the state average. These factors may contribute to the challenges in academic performance and student outcomes at Camelback High School. The overall performance and ranking of the school, as well as its district, suggest that the school and the surrounding community may face significant educational challenges that require further investigation and targeted interventions to improve student success.
