Summary:
Zip code 85367 has one listed school, Sunrise Elementary School, serving prekindergarten through grade 5 with 655 students, so families have no other listed local school to compare it with. In 2025–26, 37% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA) and 23% in math, compared with 41% and 33% statewide. The most important concern is 4th-grade math: 20% were proficient at Sunrise, 20 percentage points below the state’s 40%.
There is no local school leader or trailer, but Sunrise’s results vary notably by grade. Its strongest grade-level comparisons with the state are 5th-grade ELA and 3rd-grade math, each at 39% proficient versus 38% statewide. By contrast, 4th-grade ELA was 34% versus 47% statewide, and 4th-grade math was 20% versus 40%. Overall, Sunrise was above Yuma Elementary District in both subjects—37% versus 32% in ELA and 23% versus 20% in math—but remained below the state in each. The school’s overall ELA result was 14 points higher than its math result, though that broad pattern does not hold for every grade.
SchoolDigger’s relative ranking improved recently after a decline: Sunrise moved from the 14th percentile in 2024–25 (rank 780 of 909) to the 38th percentile in 2025–26 (rank 559 of 900); it was at the 20th percentile in 2023–24. This is a rebound in ranking, not proof that test scores rose. The reported student–teacher ratio was 19.5 in 2024–25, and 5th-grade science proficiency that year was 28%, below the district’s 29% and the state’s 34%. The list includes no other school, no free/reduced-lunch rate or comparable multi-year proficiency series, and Sunrise’s 5th-grade math result is suppressed.
