Summary:
The 85337 zip code area in Arizona is home to 3 schools - 2 elementary schools (Gila Bend Elementary and Kiser Elementary School) and 1 high school (Gila Bend High School). Unfortunately, none of these schools appear to be performing well, with all three ranked in the bottom 30% of their respective school types in the state of Arizona.
The student populations at these schools are predominantly Hispanic and Native American, with very low percentages of white students. Proficiency rates on state assessments are extremely low across the board, well below state averages. For example, only 3-6% of Gila Bend Elementary students are proficient in science, ELA, and math, compared to state averages of 27-45%. Kiser Elementary performs slightly better but still lags the state, and Gila Bend High School has only 3-12% of students proficient in these subjects.
The data suggests a challenging educational landscape in the 85337 zip code area, with high-need student populations not receiving the resources and support they need to succeed. The high dropout rate at Gila Bend High School is also a major concern. Significant interventions and support will be critical to improve educational outcomes in this area, which is served by the Gila Bend Unified District and the Paloma School District.
