ZIP code 85355 has two listed schools serving students from prekindergarten through grade 12: Mountain View serves PK–8 and has 1,045 students, while Canyon View High School serves grades 9–12 and has 2,141. The clearest academic strength in the area is Mountain View’s performance above Arizona results in most of its tested grades.
Mountain View stands out most in state comparisons: its ELA results were higher than the state’s in all six tested grades, by 4 to 20 points, and its math results were higher in five of six grades. Its largest leads were 20 points in fifth-grade ELA and 21 points in eighth-grade science. The exception in math was third grade, 3 points below the state. Canyon View High School was close to state results in 11th-grade ELA and math—1 point higher in ELA and 1 point lower in math—but 3 points below in science. Its graduation rate is a separate strength: 95%, compared with 80% statewide, a 15-point advantage. The schools’ test results cover different grades, so they do not establish a direct, grade-matched winner.
SchoolDigger’s rankings moved in different directions: Mountain View fell from the 74th percentile in 2023–24 to the 61st in 2025–26, while Canyon View High School edged up from the 47th to the 49th percentile after dipping to the 45th. Mountain View’s declining ranking alongside its strong state-relative test results is an important contrast; ranking percentiles and test scores are different measures. The student–teacher ratios are similar: 22 at Mountain View and 23 at Canyon View. Free/reduced-lunch rates are not reported for either school.
