Best Public Schools in Zip Code 86404

Summary:

The 86404 zip code area of Lake Havasu City, Arizona is home to two elementary schools: Nautilus Elementary School and Havasupai Elementary School, both part of the Lake Havasu Unified District. While the schools share similarities, there are notable differences in their academic performance and student demographics.

Nautilus Elementary generally outperforms the district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics across most grade levels. It also has a lower percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch compared to Havasupai Elementary. However, Havasupai has a higher percentage of Hispanic students and a lower student-teacher ratio.

The data suggests that factors beyond just funding and student-teacher ratios, such as student demographics and other school-level factors, may be contributing to the performance differences between the two schools. While Havasupai Elementary has a higher spending per student, its test scores, particularly in 5th-grade Mathematics, are significantly lower than the district and state averages. Overall, Nautilus Elementary appears to be the stronger-performing school in the 86404 zip code area.
