Summary:
Zip code 86413 has one K–8 school, Black Mountain Elementary School, with 474 students in Kingman Unified School District. Its most important challenge is that its 2025–26 all-grades results were well below state averages in both subjects: 21% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), compared with 41% statewide, and 9% in math, compared with 33% statewide.
There is no second local school to stand out above or below Black Mountain; it is the only school in the list. Compared with state results, its math gap was largest at 24 percentage points, while its ELA gap was 20 points. The school was also below district results by 12 points in math and 9 points in ELA. Science offers a brighter result in grade 8: 36% were proficient, 6 points above the state and 12 points above the district. Grade 5 science was 27%, 7 points below the state and equal to the district. Available grade 4–6 ELA results were consistently 18 points below the state in each grade.
Black Mountain’s relative position has weakened in SchoolDigger’s rankings: it moved from the 22nd percentile in 2023–24 to the 18th in 2024–25 and the 8th in 2025–26, while its rating changed from 1 star to 0 stars. These rankings describe relative standing, not a measured change in test proficiency. The school has a student–teacher ratio of 18.2; a free/reduced-lunch rate was not provided. Some grade-level test results are suppressed, and the single-school list cannot show how the school compares with other local options.
