Summary:
The 85648 zip code area is home to 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Santa Cruz Valley Unified District. While the district as a whole is ranked 250 out of 289 districts in Arizona and rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger, a few schools in the area stand out.
Mountain View School performs relatively well on test scores, with 33% of 3rd graders proficient or better in math and 43% of 4th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts. It also has a lower student-teacher ratio of 17.2 and spends $7,991 per student, higher than the other elementary schools. Meanwhile, Coatimundi Middle School ranks 385 out of 552 Arizona middle schools, the highest ranking among the schools in the data set, and has higher test scores than the district and state averages in several grade levels, particularly in English Language Arts.
However, the schools in the 85648 zip code area generally perform below the state averages on standardized tests, with the high school and middle school struggling the most. The elementary schools show more variability, with some grades performing better than the district and state averages, while others lag behind. The spending per student and student-teacher ratios also vary across the schools, which may contribute to the differences in performance. Addressing the underlying issues and implementing effective strategies to improve student outcomes should be a priority for the Santa Cruz Valley Unified District.
