The 85936 zip code area is home to 4 schools, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools (one of which is an alternative school). Based on the data, St Johns Middle School and Coronado Elementary School stand out as top performers in the area.

Coronado Elementary's 3rd-grade students also excel, outperforming state and district averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics.
While the schools in the 85936 zip code serve a diverse student population, there are some concerning disparities. St. Johns Learning Center, an alternative high school, struggles with a low 37.5% graduation rate and a high 28.5% dropout rate, indicating potential equity issues that need to be addressed. Additionally, the significant difference in spending per student between the high school and the alternative school ($9,191 vs. $3,558) raises questions about resource allocation and equity across the St Johns Unified District.
Overall, the data highlights both strengths and areas for improvement in the schools within the 85936 zip code. The standout performance of St Johns Middle School and Coronado Elementary, coupled with the concerning issues at St. Johns Learning Center, suggest the need for a deeper dive into the factors contributing to these outcomes and the implementation of targeted strategies to support all students in the district.
