Summary:
Zip code 85670 has three PK–8 schools serving 774 students in Fort Huachuca Accommodation District. Enrollment is similar across the schools, ranging from 246 students at General Myer Elementary School to 270 at Colonel Johnston Elementary School. The clearest finding in the available test results is that both schools with reported scores are above state proficiency levels in both English language arts (ELA) and math.
Colonel Smith Middle School stands out in all-grades ELA, with 67% proficient compared with Myer’s 55%, a 12-point lead. Myer leads in math, with 52% proficient compared with Smith’s 49%, a 3-point difference. Both are ahead of the state: Smith by 26 points in ELA and 16 in math, and Myer by 14 points in ELA and 19 in math. Grade-level results also show strengths: Smith’s 8th-grade ELA proficiency is 74%, 35 points above the state; Myer’s 4th-grade math is 68%, 28 points above. The data do not identify a lowest-performing school: Johnston has no test scores in the supplied information. Science results are also strong against state benchmarks—Myer’s 5th-grade result is 61% versus 34% statewide, and Smith’s 8th-grade result is 52% versus 30%—but the different grades make those school percentages an unfair direct comparison.
Myer’s SchoolDigger percentile ranking has declined across its three recent reported years, from the 91st percentile in 2023–2024 to the 69th in 2025–2026, even though its latest test results remain above state levels. Smith’s available SchoolDigger ranking history is much older, from 2011–2014, so it does not provide a current comparison with Myer. Staffing ratios are close at Smith and Myer—14.1 and 14.3 students per teacher—while Johnston’s is 15.7; Johnston also has the largest enrollment, at 270 students. These figures do not show a clear relationship between school size or ratio and test results, and free/reduced-lunch figures are blank for all three schools.
