Summary:
ZIP code 85207 has eight schools serving 4,035 students: six serve prekindergarten through sixth grade, and two serve kindergarten through eighth grade. Enrollment ranges from 242 students at Cambridge Academy East to 721 at Zaharis Elementary. The latest all-grades results show a wide spread: ELA proficiency ranges from 20% to 71%, and math from 15% to 72%. The most important takeaway is that results vary substantially by school, so the ZIP code alone does not describe what families can expect.
Las Sendas Elementary School is the clearest standout, with 71% proficient in ELA and 72% in math—30 and 39 percentage points above Arizona’s results. Pathfinder Academy is also strong, at 69% in ELA and 59% in math, while Zaharis posts 60% and 52%. At the lower end, Salk Elementary School has the lowest reported results in both subjects, at 20% in ELA and 16% in math; Cambridge has the lowest math result, 15%. Falcon Hill Elementary School matches the state’s 41% ELA result, but its fifth-grade ELA result is 20%, compared with 38% statewide. Grade-level results also reinforce the leaders’ strengths: Las Sendas has 82% proficient in fifth-grade math, and Pathfinder leads reported third-grade ELA at 73%.
SchoolDigger’s statewide rankings put Las Sendas at the 94th percentile and Pathfinder at the 88th in 2025–26, compared with Salk at the 18th. Rankings have moved in different directions: from 2023–24 to 2025–26, Falcon Hill rose from the 33rd to the 48th percentile and Sousa Elementary School from the 21st to the 47th; Zaharis and Taft Elementary School held steady, while Las Sendas, Pathfinder, and Salk dipped slightly. These are ranking changes, not evidence that test scores rose or fell. Ratios also do not clearly track results: Sousa’s 13.8 students per teacher and Taft’s 14.8 are lower than Las Sendas’s 17.2, yet Las Sendas leads the group. Only one AASA year is provided, grade spans differ, and free/reduced-lunch figures are unavailable.
