Summary:
The 85335 zip code area in Arizona is home to 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Dysart Unified District. While the schools serve a diverse, predominantly Hispanic and economically disadvantaged student population, there are significant performance disparities among them.
Surprise Elementary School stands out as the top-performing elementary school, ranking 541 out of 1,245 Arizona elementary schools. In contrast, some of the other elementary schools and Dysart Middle School struggle, with proficiency rates well below the district and state averages. Dysart High School also excels, with a strong 93.9% four-year graduation rate, significantly higher than the district and state.
The variation in per-student spending and student-teacher ratios across the schools suggests potential differences in resource allocation, which may contribute to the performance disparities. Addressing these gaps, as well as the unique needs of the predominantly Hispanic and economically disadvantaged student population, could be key priorities for the Dysart Unified District to support student success across all its schools in the 85335 zip code area.
