Summary:
Zip code 82732 has two schools: Cottonwood Elementary, serving PK–6, and Wright Junior & Senior High School, serving grades 7–12. In 2025–26, Cottonwood’s average math proficiency across grades 3–6 was 59.6%, close to the state’s 60.4%, while its ELA average was 15.4 percentage points below the state. Wright averaged 3.6 points above the state in math but 4.4 points below in ELA. The most important takeaway is that results vary widely by grade and subject, so neither school’s overall averages tell the whole story.
Wright stands out for some upper-grade results: grade 9 ELA reached 80%, 24.4 points above the state, and grade 10 math reached 76%, 31 points above. Its reported graduation rate was 97.4%, compared with 83.1% statewide. But its grade 7 results were among the weakest: ELA was 34.4%, 22.1 points below the state, and math was 28.1%, 24.8 points below. Cottonwood’s clearest strength was grade 3 math at 76.9%, 15.7 points above the state; its grade 4 ELA was 28.6%, 24 points below. Science was below the state in every reported grade at both schools.
Recent changes are mixed. Cottonwood’s average math proficiency rose 15.9 points from 2024–25 to 2025–26, while its ELA average dipped 1.7 points. Wright’s averages fell 6.7 points in ELA and 4.1 in math. SchoolDigger’s rankings improved over the longer term: Cottonwood moved from the 10th percentile in 2023–24 to the 20th in 2025–26, and Wright from the 49th to the 77th, after reaching the 81st in 2024–25. Enrollment and student-teacher ratios were similar (198 students and 10.1 at Cottonwood; 174 and 9.6 at Wright); free/reduced-lunch eligibility was 49.0% and 38.5%, respectively. Because the schools serve different grades, their test results are not direct same-grade comparisons.
