Summary:
The 85118 zip code in Arizona is home to a single elementary school, Peralta Trail Elementary School, which serves grades K-6 with a total enrollment of 288 students. The school is part of the Apache Junction Unified District, which is ranked 236 out of 289 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating.
Peralta Trail Elementary School has a fluctuating statewide ranking, ranging from 424 out of 909 Arizona elementary schools in 2024-2025 (3 out of 5 stars) to 602 out of 1,245 in 2022-2023 (3 out of 5 stars). The school's test scores in English Language Arts and Mathematics for grades 3-5 are generally higher than the district and state averages, with some exceptions. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 5th-grade Science proficiency rate of 34% matched the state average but was higher than the district's 21%. However, the lack of data on free/reduced lunch rates makes it difficult to assess the socioeconomic factors that may be influencing the school's performance.
With Peralta Trail Elementary School being the only school in the 85118 zip code, there are no other schools to directly compare it to within this specific geographic area. The limited data available for this single school makes it challenging to draw broader conclusions or comparisons. Expanding the data set to include more schools in the surrounding area or district would provide a richer context for analysis and a better understanding of the school's performance and challenges.
