Copper Creek Elementary School up 45 spots statewide this year
Summary:

ZIP code 85737 has three listed schools: two elementary schools and one school classified as high school. In the 2025–26 all-grades results, every school was above the state in both English language arts (ELA) and math, but the gap between the strongest and weakest schools—43 percentage points in ELA and 45 points in math—is the clearest takeaway.

BASIS Oro Valley leads, with 91% proficient in both subjects—50 points above the state in ELA and 58 points above in math. BASIS Oro Valley Primary is next at 76% in ELA and 83% in math, while Copper Creek Elementary School is lower at 48% and 46%, respectively. Comparing the elementary schools in the same grades, Primary leads Copper Creek by 23–32 points in ELA and 36–40 points in math across grades 3–5. SchoolDigger ranks Primary 24th of 900 statewide schools (97th percentile) and Copper Creek 351st (61st percentile).

The available SchoolDigger ranking histories show different paths: Primary’s percentile was 98th, 99th, then 97th from 2023–24 through 2025–26; Copper Creek went from 69th to 56th, then recovered to 61st. A notable grade-level pattern is weaker fifth-grade ELA at both elementary schools: Primary scored 68%, down from 83% in grade 4, and Copper Creek scored 36%, down from 60%. Copper Creek has the smallest enrollment (283 students) and lowest student–teacher ratio (9.1), compared with 599 students and 18.7 at Primary and 540 students and 16.1 at BASIS Oro Valley, so these figures alone do not indicate which school is the better fit. The test results cover one year, ranking histories are not test-score trends, and free/reduced-lunch rates are unavailable.
