Best Public Schools in Zip Code 85003


Summary:

The 85003 zip code area of Phoenix, Arizona is home to 4 schools - 3 elementary schools and 1 high school. These schools serve predominantly Hispanic and African American student populations, with high rates of economic disadvantage as indicated by the large percentages of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Among the standout schools in this area is Vista College Preparatory - Hadley, a public charter elementary school that has shown relatively strong academic performance compared to the other schools. This school outperformed the Phoenix Elementary District and the state averages in English Language Arts and Math proficiency for 3rd and 4th graders. Another school, Kenilworth Elementary School, has demonstrated more consistent academic results across grade levels, with proficiency rates closer to the state averages.

In contrast, some of the schools in this area, such as Lowell Elementary School and City View High School, struggle with very low proficiency rates in core subjects, particularly in Math. The high school also has a concerning dropout rate of 10.8% and a low 4-year graduation rate of 25.0%, which is significantly below the state average. These findings suggest the need for continued support and intervention to address the academic and socioeconomic challenges faced by the schools in this zip code area.
