Summary:
Four PK–8 schools in ZIP code 85381 are part of Peoria Unified School District; their latest all-grade English language arts (ELA) and math results are from 2025–26. As a group, they are modestly above state results: their average is 44% in ELA versus 41% statewide, and 37% in math versus 33%. But those averages conceal a wide divide among schools: the top-to-bottom spread is 25 points in ELA and 27 points in math—the area’s most important finding for families comparing options.
Oakwood Elementary School stands out at the top, with 55% proficient in ELA and 47% in math, leading the next-highest school by 8 points in each subject; both results are 14 points above the state. At the bottom, Sky View Elementary School has 30% in ELA and 20% in math—11 and 13 points below state results. Paseo Verde Elementary School and Oasis Elementary School have grade-specific strengths: Paseo Verde leads grade 3 math at 64% and grade 5 ELA at 60%, while Oasis leads grade 6 ELA at 52% and grade 8 math at 51%. In 2024–25 science, Oakwood also leads the available grade 5 and grade 8 results, with 47% and 43% proficient.
SchoolDigger’s rankings show mixed movement rather than a clear area-wide trend: from 2023–24 to 2025–26, Oakwood moved from the 74th to the 70th percentile, Oasis from the 56th to the 52nd, and Paseo Verde from the 75th to the 64th, while Sky View rose from the 17th to the 38th percentile. In the current ratings, Oakwood has 4 stars, Sky View 2, and Oasis and Paseo Verde 3 each. Sky View has the lowest student–teacher ratio at 15.6 and Oakwood the highest at 20.5, despite their contrasting results; that comparison does not establish a cause. The supplied data do not show multi-year proficiency trends, and free/reduced-lunch rates and some Sky View grade results are unavailable.
