Summary:
ZIP code 85748 has one high school: Academy of Tucson High School, serving grades 9–12, with 152 students and 12.5 students per teacher. Its results offer a picture of this school, but not a comparison among local high schools. The clearest standout is 11th-grade science: 42% of students were proficient in 2024–25, 23 percentage points above the state’s 19%.
There is no meaningful local top-or-bottom ranking because this is the only school in the ZIP; it is technically both the highest and lowest. In English language arts (ELA), its results were a little below the state: in 2025–26, 37% were proficient across all grades, compared with 41% statewide and 38% in the district; in grade 11, the school had 37%, versus 38% statewide, matching the district. The science result also matched the district’s 42%. The school’s mathematics result is suppressed, so it cannot be assessed; no income measure is provided.
SchoolDigger gives the school 3 stars, and its statewide percentile has fallen over the reported years: from 74 in 2022–23 to 71 in 2023–24 and 63 in 2024–25, a decline of 11 points overall. This indicates weaker relative standing in SchoolDigger’s rankings, but does not show that proficiency scores themselves fell. SchoolDigger’s rank shifted from 123 of 469 schools to 79 of 270, then 99 of 271, so the percentile is the clearer trend to follow as the ranking pools changed. The available results show a notable science strength alongside slightly below-state ELA; because they cover different school years, they do not establish a consistent subject-area pattern.
